Quick Setup Guide - Marantz SR5004 Manual

The Outlaws' Guide to the Marantz SR5004

Quick Setup Guide

Both the Marantz User Manual for the SR5004 and the "Roadmap to the Setup Menus"
section of this Guide provide detailed descriptions of the unit's menus and how to
configure them. This section will provide an introduction to the receiver's menus as well
as some recommended settings to assist in the initial setup. We will address each of the
six main menu sections in order.
Before entering the SR5004's setup menu, please take a moment to familiarize yourself
with the remote control. Just above the volume and input buttons on the remote, there is
a group of twelve buttons in a white box. For everything that you will be doing here, start
by selecting the "AMP" button in the lower right corner of this group. This allows the
remote to control the SR5004. The "On" button at the top right corner of the remote will
switch the unit between Standby mode and On, while the "Standby" button next to it will
place it in Standby mode (pressing this button when already in Standby mode will do
nothing). The other controls needed for the setup process are the navigation pad at the
center of the remote and the two buttons directly beneath it ("Menu" and "Exit"). The
navigation pad provides navigation through the menus (▲ and ▼ to scroll through
menu entries, ◄ and ► to adjust settings, and the "Enter" button to selected highlighted
items), while "Menu" will toggle in and out of the setup menu and "Exit" will exit the
setup menu. To step back to the previous menu screen, scroll to the bottom of each
menu screen and select "Return." These controls are also available on the front panel.
Menu Navigation Controls – Remote Menu Navigation Controls – Front Panel
Start by turning your TV on and setting it to the input that is connected to the SR5004's
monitor output. This will let you navigate the menus on your video display. You may
want to refer back to the previous section on connecting the SR5004 and to the video
tiers described there, as the Video Display Tier selected there has an impact on some
of the settings you choose. Once that is done, you can press the "Menu" button on the
remote or front panel to enter the Main Menu.
