Connecting the USB memory
device
Caution
• Be sure to turn the player’s power off before
connecting or disconnecting USB memory devices.
• Use empty USB memory devices (on which nothing is
stored).
• If the USB memory device is write-protected, be sure
to disable the write-protection.
• Placing excessive loads on the plug may result in
poor contact, making it impossible to write data on
the USB memory device.
• When a USB memory device is connected and the
player’s power is turned on, do not unplug the power
cord.
• USB external hard disks cannot be connected to the
player.
Note
• Devices may not work if connected to the USB port via
a memory card reader or USB hub.

terminal, you can play audio files stored on the
components on the network, including your computer,
using HOME MEDIA GALLERY inputs.
Connect the LAN terminal on this receiver to the LAN
terminal on your router (with or without the built-in DHCP
server function) with a straight LAN cable (CAT 5 or
