Cautions on handling
• Switching the input source when input terminals are not connected.
A clicking noise may be produced if the input source is switched when nothing is connected to
the input terminals. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control knob or
connect components to the input terminals.
• Muting of PRE OUT terminals, PHONES jack and SPEAKER terminals.
The PRE OUT terminals, PHONES jack and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit. Because
of this, the output signals are greatly attenuated for several seconds after the power switch is
turned on or the input source, surround mode or any other set-up is changed. If the volume is
turned up during this time, the output will be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning.
Always wait until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.
• Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the unit is still connected to AC line
voltage.
Please be sure to turn off the power switch or unplug the cord when you leave home for,
say, a vacation.
Preparing the remote control unit
The included remote control unit (RC-1024) can be used to operate not only the AVR-4306 but other
remote control compatible DENON components as well. In addition, the memory contains the
control signals for other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-DENON remote
control compatible products.
Cautions on installation
Noise or disturbance of the picture may be
generated if this unit or any other electronic
equipment using microprocessors is used
near a tuner or TV.
If this happens, take the following steps:
• Install this unit as far away as possible
from the tuner or TV.
• Run the antenna wires from the tuner or
TV away from this unit’s power supply cord
and input/output connection cables.
• Noise or disturbance tends to occur
particularly when using indoor antennas or
300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We
recommend using outdoor antennas
and 75 Ω/ohm coaxial cables.

Note
Note:
For heat dispersal, do not install this unit in a confined space such as a bookcase or similar
enclosure.
Operating range of the remote control unit
30°
30°
Approx. 7 m
• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the main unit as shown in the diagram.
• The remote control unit can be used from a straight distance of approximately 7 meters from the
main unit, but this distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in the way or if the remote control
unit is not pointed directly at the remote sensor.
• The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30 degrees with respect
to the remote sensor.
NOTE:
• It may be difficult to operate the remote
control unit if the remote sensor is exposed to
direct sunlight or strong artificial light.
• Do not press buttons on the main unit and
remote control unit simultaneously. Doing so
may result in malfunction.
• Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-
type noise nearby may result in malfunction,
so keep the set as far away from such devices
as possible.
Inserting the batteries
q Remove the remote control unit’s rear
cover.
w Set two LR6/AA batteries in the battery
compartment in the indicated direction.
e Put the rear cover back on.
Notes on batteries:
• Replace the batteries with new ones if the set
does not operate even when the remote
control unit is operated nearby the unit. (The
included batteries are only for verifying
operation.)
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so
in the proper direction, following the “<” and
“>” marks in the battery compartment.
•To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:
• Do not use a new battery together with an
old one.
•Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or
dispose of batteries in flames.
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe
the fluid off the inside of the battery
compartment and insert new batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, have the new
batteries ready and insert them as quickly as
possible.
