Getting Started
Preparing the remote control unit
•The included remote control unit (RC-995) can be used to operate not only the AVR-4806 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.
qRemove the remote control unit’s rear cover.
wSet four R03/AAA batteries in the battery compartment in
the indicated direction.
ePut 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 set. (The included battery is 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.
Cautions on handling
•Switching the input function when input terminals are
not connected.
A clicking noise may be produced if the input function 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 and SPEAKER terminals.
The PRE OUT terminals and SPEAKER terminals include a
muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are
greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch
is turned on or input function, 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.
2Motion sensor
•The RC-995 remote control is equipped with a motion
sensor that activates the backlighting function when it is
picked up and/or handled. Occasionally, you might hear a
faint “clicking” sound from within, this is the motion
sensor, and is a normal condition.
Inserting the batteries
•Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state,
the apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage.
Please be sure to turn off the power switch or unplug
the cord when you leave home for, say, a vacation.
