make other adjustments. If you have no other adjust-
ments to make, press the OSD Button U to exit
the menu system.
NOTE: Output levels may be separately trimmed for each
surround mode. If you wish to have different trim levels for
a specific mode, select that mode and then follow the
instructions shown above.

Dim Function

Since the AVR 7300 will often be used when movies
or other video programming is viewed under low-light
conditions, you may wish to lower the brightness of
the front-panel displays and indicators so that they do
not distract from the video presentation. You may dim
the displays using the menu system, as shown on
page 42, or you may control the brightness directly
from the remote.
Simply press the Dim Button m once to dim the
front panel to half the normal brightness level; press
it again to turn the displays off. Note that when the
displays are dimmed or turned off, the lighting around
the Standby/On Button 1 will remain lit as a
reminder that the AVR is still turned on.
Note that all changes to the front-panel brightness
level remain in effect only until the AVR is turned off;
the displays will return to full brightness after the AVR
is turned on again. To return the displays to full bright-
ness without turning the unit off, press the Dim
Button m as needed until the displays are on.
In addition to lowering the brightness of the displays
or turning them off completely, you may wish to have
them appear whenever a button on the remote or
front panel is pushed, and then gradually fade out after
a set time period. You may do this by making the
appropriate settings in the VFD FADE TIME
OUT line of the ADVANCED SELECT
Menu (Figure 19), as shown on page 42.

Memory Backup

This product is equipped with a memory backup sys-
tem that preserves the system configuration information
and tuner presets if the unit is accidentally unplugged
or subjected to a power outage. This memory will last
for at least four weeks, after which time all information
must be reentered.
