Protection Circuit
If the core wires touch the rear panel and the
screws etc., or the ± sides touch each other, the
protection circuit will be activated and the power
indicator will flash red at intervals of 0.5 secs.
If the protection circuit is activated, the speaker
output is isolated, and the power supply goes to
the standby state. If the power supply is turned off,
after the power supply cord is withdrawn, please
confirm that speaker cable and input cable are
connected.
Also, if replaying large sound levels by using
a speaker having an impedance less than that
specified (eg, 4 Ω/ohms), the temperature will rise,
and the protection circuit might be activated. The
power supply will go into the standby state, and the
power indicator will flash red at 2 second intervals.
In this case, please switch off the power supply,
and wait until the AVR-3310CI has cooled down,
and the surrounding ventilation is good.
Even if there are no problems with the surrounding
ventilation and connections, in the event of the
protection circuit becoming activated, due to
thinking that the AVR-3310CI has failed, please
contact DENON Service center after switching off.

NOTE
Connect so that the speaker cable core wires
do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The
protection circuit may be activated if the core
wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides
touch each other (v“Protection Circuit”).
Never touch the speaker terminals while the
power supply is connected. Doing so could result
in electric shock.

Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms.
When using front A and B speakers simultaneously,
use speakers with an impedance of 8 to 16 Ω/
ohms.

When in the “Front A Bi-Amp” and “Front B Bi-
Amp” modes, the same signals are output from
the front speaker terminals and the AMP ASSIGN
terminals.
These connections make for higher quality playback
sound with no interference between the signals of
the bass and treble units.
When the “Amp Assign” setting (vpage 34) is
“Front A Bi-Amp” or “Front B Bi-Amp”, connect
as follows. (The illustration shows a connection
example for the Front A Bi-Amp speakers.)
NOTE
Use speakers compatible with bi-amp
connections.
When making bi-amp connections, be sure to
remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between
the speaker’s woofer and tweeter terminals.
•
•
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels
and + (red) and – (black) polarities on the speakers
being connected to the AVR-3310CI, and be sure to
interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
When using a banana plug
Tighten the speaker
terminal firmly before
inserting the banana plug.

Peel off about 0.03 ft/10
mm of sheathing from
the tip of the speaker
cable, then either twist
the core wire tightly or
terminate it.

Turn the speaker terminal
counterclockwise to
loosen it.
3
Insert the speaker cable’s
core wire to the hilt into
the speaker terminal.
4
Turn the speaker terminal
clockwise to tighten it.
