[] CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
Switching the input function when input jacks
are not connected
A clicking noise may be produced f the input
function is switched when _lOthi_lg is con_lected to
the input jacks If this happens r either turn do_vn the
MASTER VOLUME CO_ltrOlor connect compo_lents
to the input }acks
Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks
and SPEAKER terminals
The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE iacks and
SPEAKER termnals include a mutng crcuit
Because of this, the output signals are greatly
reduced for several seconds after the power switch
is turned on or i_lput 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
Whenever the power switch is in the IL OFF
state, the apparatus is still connected on AC line
voltage.
Please be sure to unplug the cord when you
leave home for, say, a vacation.

[] FEATURES
1. Digital Surround Sound Decoding
Featuring 32 bit high speed DSP, operating entirely
in digital domain, surround sound from digital
sources such as DVD, LD, DTV and satellite are
faithfully re-created
2. Doiby Pro Logic I! decoder
Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing
multichannel audio signals that offers
improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic¸
It can be used to decode not only sources
recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo
sources into five channels (front left/right, center
and surround left/right) In addition, various
parameters can be set according to the type of
source and the contents, so you can adiust the
sound field with greater precision¸
3. Dolby Digital
Using advanced digital processing algorithms,
Dolby Digital provides up to 51 channels of wide_
range, high fidelity surround sound¸ Dolby Digital
is the default digital audio delivery system for
North American DVD and DTV
4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
DTS provides up to 51 channels of wide-range,
high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as
laseE disc, DVD and specially_encoded music
discs¸
5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6
The AVR_802 is compatible with DTS_ES Extended
Surround, a new multFchannel format developed by
Digital Theater Systems Inc
The AVR-3802 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a
surround mode allowing 61-channel playback of
regular stereo sources
6. Wide screen mode for a ?.l-channel sound
even with
5.1-channel sources
DENON has developed a wide screen mode with
a new design which recreates the effects of the
multi surround speakers in movie theaters¸ The
result is 71 _channel sound taking full advantage of
surround back speakers, even with Dolby Pro
Logic or Dolby Digital/DTS 5 l_channel signals¸
?. 24 bit D/A Conversion
All six channels, including the five main channels
and the low frequency effects (LFE) channel
benefit from reference, for optimum high fidelity
reproduction of music and movie soundtracks
8. Dual Surround Speaker Mode
Provides for the first time the ability to optimize
surround sound reproduction using two different
types of surround sound speakers as well as two
different surround speaker positions:
4
(1) Movie Surround
Motion picture soundtracks use the surround
channel{sl to provide the ambient elements of
the acoustic environment they want the
audience to realize This is best accomplished
by the use of specially-designed surround
speakers that offeE a wide diffusion pattem
(bipolar dispersion) or by using surround
speakers that provide broad dispers on with a
mmEmum of on-axis localization (dipolar
dispersion) Side wall mounting (closer to the
ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the
greatest envelopment, minimizing Iocalizat on
of drect sound from the speakers
(2) Music Surround
With full range discrete surround cpannels, as
well as three discrete full range front channels,
digtal formats such as Do]by and DTS offer
thrilling surround sound music listening
Producers of mulLFchannel discrete dgital
music recordings almost always favor the use
of direct radiating (monopolar) surround
speakersr placed in the rear corners of the
room, snce that is how they configure their
studios during the mixing/creation process
The DENON AVR-3802 provides the ability to
connect two different sets of surround
speakers, and place them in the appropriate
locations in your AV theater room, so that you
can enjoy both movie soundtracks and music
listening, with optimum results and no
compromise
9. Component Video Switching
In addilion to composite video and "S r' video
swtching, the AVR_3802 provides 2 sets of
component video (Y, PB/C8, PR/CR) inputs for the
DVD and TV/DBS inputs, and one set of
component video outputs to the television, for
superior picture quality
10. Video Select Function
Allow you to watch one source (visual) while
listening to another source (audio)
11. Future Sound Format Upgrade Capability via
Eight ChanneI Inputs & Outputs
For future multi-chan_el audio format{sl, the AVR_
3802 is provided with 71 cham_el {seven main
channels, plus one low frequency effects channel)
inputs, along with a full set of 71 channel pre-amp
outpUtSr controlled by the 8 channel master
volume control This assures future upgrade
possibilites for any future mult-channel sound
format
[] CONNECTIONS
Do not plug in the AC cord until all connections
have been completed
Be sure to connect the left and right channels
properly (left with left, right with right)
Insert the plugs securely Incomplete connect ons
win result in the generation of noise
Use the AC OUTLET for audio equipment only,
Do not use them for hair driers, etc.
Note that binding pin plug cords together with AC
cords or placing them near a power transformer
will result in generating hum or other noise
Noise or humming may be generated if a
connected audio equipment is used independently
without turning the power of this unit on If this
happens, turn on the power of the this unit
When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components
The power to this outlet is turned on and off when the power is switched between on and standby from the

Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers
making sure that like polarities are matched (_)
with _, O with O ) Mismatching of polarities will
resuk i+1weak central sound, U+lclear orientation of
the various i+lStruments, and the sense of direction
of the stereo being mpaired
When making connections, take care that no+le of
the individual CO+ldUCtOrsof the speaker cord come
in contact with adjacent terminals, with other
speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel
NOTE:
NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the
power is on+
Doing so could result in electric shocks.
Speaker Impedance
Speakers with an impeda+lce of from 6 to 16
£2/uhms can be connected for use as front and
center speakers
Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 _)./ohms
can be connected for use as surround and surround
back speakers
Be careful when using two pairs of surround
speakers (A + B) at the same time, snce use of
speakers with an impedance of less than 8 £_/ohms
will lead to damage
The protector circuit may be activated if the set is
played for long periods of time at high volumes
when speakers with an impedance lower than the
specified impedance are connected
Connecting the speaker cords

|" e -
If another pre-main (integrated) amplifier or power amplifier is connectedr the multi-source jacks can be used
to play a different program source in another room at the same time
This unit s equipped with a high-speed protectio+l circuit The purpose of this circuit is to protect the
speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently shor_-
circuited and a large current flOWSr when the temperature surround ng the unit becomes unusually high, or
when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise
When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED
flashes Should this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check
whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to
cool down if t s very hot Improve the ventilation cond tion around the unit and switch the power back on
If the protection circuit is activated again even though theEe are no problems with the wiring or the
vent ]ation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center
The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for Io+lg periods of time at high volumes when
speakers with an impedance IoweE than the specified mpedance {for example speakers with an
impedance of IoweE than 4 _/ohms) are connected If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output
is cut off Turn off the set's power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set,
then turn the power back on

NOTES:
-- Assignment of low frequency signal range --
The only sig_lals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or
DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to "Small" in the setup menu The low
frequency signal range of channels set to "Large" are produced from those channels
-- Crossover Frequency --
When r'Subwoofer" S set to "Yes" at the "Speaker Configuration Setting"r set the frequency (Hz) below
which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer (the crossover
frequency)
For speakers set to "Smallr', sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and the cut bass
sound is output from the subwoofer instead
NOTE: For ordinary speaker systemSr we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz When
using small speakers, however, setting the crossovel frequency to a high frequency may improve
frequency response for frequencies near tile crossover frequency
-- Subwoofer mode --
The subwoofer nlode setting is only valid when "Large" is set for the frollt speakers and "Y_s" is set for
the subwoofer in the "Speaker Configuration" settings (see page 10)
When the r'LFE+MAIN" playback mode is selected, the low freque_lcy signal range of cha_lnels set to
"Large" are produced simultaneously from those cha_mels and the subwoofer channel
I_ this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more u_iformly through the room, but depend ng
on the sze and shape of the room, interfere_ce may result n a decrease of the actual volume of the low
frequency range
Selection of the "LFE r, play mode will play the low frequency sgnal range of the cha_lnel selected with
