CAUTION WARNING To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. You are cautioned that any changes or modification not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment. Note to CATV system installer For customers in the U.S.A.
For customers in the USA For detailed safety precautions, see the “IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS” leaflet. About This Manual This manual is divided into three sections; Getting Started, On-screen Operations and Front Panel Operations. The “Getting Started” section describes connections, how to set up the remote for on-screen control, and Dolby Surround. You can also control the receiver without the remote. The “Front Panel Operations” section describes how to operate the receiver using the front panel controls.
Welcome! Thank you for purchasing the STR-DE1015G, STRDE815G or STR-D760Z Sony FM Stereo/FM-AM Receiver. Your new receiver is an audio/video control center with a unique interface. When you connect the receiver to your TV, an on-screen display (shown below) appears and lets you operate the various connected audio/video components with this receiver’s remote. Also, the on-screen display lets you control any other device that can be controlled by an infrared remote control, such as air conditioners.
Hooking Up the System Hookup Overview The receiver allows you to connect and control the following audio/video components. For details on connection of each component, see the pages in parentheses.

HookingGetting Up the System Started Infrared (IR) Repeater Hookups Antenna Hookups The IR repeater emits infrared signals corresponding to those emitted by the remote controls supplied with the components. Connect the IR repeater if: • You experience difficulty controlling a certain component using the on-screen display control. • Your installation configuration prevents the IR repeater on the receiver’s front panel from reaching all of the components you need to control.

OUTPUT INPUT LINE LINE L R R DAT / MD If your components are Sony products, connect them to the jacks as shown in the table on page 19 so that the IR registration is unnecessary. d PHONO (to a turntable)* Receiver Note for STR-DE1015G Turntable IN For digital connections see “Digital Component Hookups” (page 13).
HookingGetting Up the System Started Speaker placement for STR-DE1015G Speaker System Hookups Although front (left and right) speakers are required, center and rear speakers are required only for enjoying surround sound. What cords will I need? Speaker cord (not supplied) (+) (+) (–) (–) Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm). Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and – to –.
Hooking Up the System Depending on the shape of your room (etc.), you may wish to place the rear speakers behind you instead of on the side walls. One advantage of this placement is that you can use a pair of large floor standing speakers matching your front speakers. z You can connect wireless rear speakers (except for STR-D760Z) When using an optional Sony wireless rear speaker system, connect the transmitter to the WIRELESS REAR SPEAKER connector.
HookingGetting Up the System Started What cables will I need? TV-VCR Hookups • Audio/video cable (not supplied) Yellow You must connect a TV to control the receiver using the on-screen display. Also, to enjoy the Dolby Pro Logic Surround encoded videos and TV programs, you need to connect TV and VCRs together with the center and rear speakers.
Hooking Up the System c LD/DVD (to LD or DVD player) Note Set the TV tuner to skip channels where there is no broadcast so that an image is always displayed on the TV screen; otherwise, the on-screen display is distorted.
HookingGetting Up the System Started Digital Component Hookups (STR-DE1015G only) b LD/DVD IN: AC-3 RF (to LD player) If you connect an LD player to the analog LD/DVD in jacks, be sure to connect the LD player’s AC-3 RF output to the LD/DVD IN: AC-3 RF jack. Receiver You can connect the optical digital output jack of a DVD player, DAT/MD deck, CD player (etc.) to the receiver’s optical digital input jacks.
Hooking Up the System Before using for the first time AC Hookups Setting the voltage selector (only on the models supplied with the voltage selector) Check that the voltage selector on the rear panel of the receiver is set to the local power supply voltage. If not, set the selector to the correct position using a screwdriver before connecting the AC power cord to a wall outlet. Be sure to clear the receiver’s memory before using for the first time. 1 Make sure the POWER is set to off.
Setting Up the Remote for On-Screen Control Using the Remote Inserting batteries into the remote (USA and Canada) Insert two size AA (R6) batteries with the + and – on the battery compartment. When using the remote, point it at the remote sensor g on the receiver. Turning on the receiver and bringing up the on-screen display on your TV (or monitor) To turn on the receiver, point the remote at the IR receptor, and then press the direction control button on the remote once or twice.
Setting Up the Remote for On-Screen Control How to use the remote Notes on handling the remote (except for USA and Canada) The supplied remote lets you perform almost all of the receiver operations. This section describes how to use the direction control button. For certain operations, you can also control the receiver using the other (short-cut) buttons instead of the direction control button. For details, see page 52. • Do not cover the IR emitter on the remote when operating the remote.
Setting Up the Remote for On-Screen GettingControl Started Registering a TV (or Monitor) 4 You must register the IR code of your TV (or monitor) in order to turn on your TV automatically whenever you turn on the receiver. IR code registration is unnecessary in the following case If your TV is a Sony product that can be controlled by an infrared remote, and it is connected to the receiver by its VIDEO 1 video input jack, you do not need to register its IR code.
Setting Up the Remote for On-Screen Control 7 When “PUSH YOUR REMOTE” appears in the on-screen display, press the button on the TV's remote that corresponds to the highlighted control button (e.g., POWER). • If your TV’s remote has an independent input selector button (e.g., VIDEO 1). When registering the IR code, be sure to do the following; otherwise, the IR code may not be registered correctly. • Point the remote at the IR sensor on the receiver from a distance of less than 2 inches (5 cm).
