• Make sure the microphone is connected.
• If you're using a subwoofer, it is automatically
detected every time you switch on the system. Make
sure it is on and the volume is turned up.
• See below for notes regarding high background
noise levels and other possible interference.
7 Wait for the Auto MCACC Setup to finish
outputting test tones.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while the
receiver outputs test tones to determine the speakers
present in your setup. Try to be as quiet as possible while
it's doing this.

Caution!!
Test tone is
output loudly.
• Do not adjust the volume during the test tones. This
may result in incorrect speaker settings.
8 Confirm the speaker configuration in the OSD.
The configuration shown on-screen should reflect the
actual speakers you have.
If the speaker configuration displayed isn't correct, use
the (cursor up/down) buttons to select the speaker
and (cursor left/right) to change the setting (and
number for surround back). When you're finished, go to
the next step.
If you see an error message (ERR) in the right side
column, there may be a problem with the speaker
connection. If selecting RETRY doesn't fix the problem,
turn off the power and check the speaker connections.
