Use the AV receiver's input selector buttons to select the input source.
To select the input source with the remote controller, press the
[RECEIVER] button, and then use the INPUT SELECTOR buttons.
On the remote controller, the [V1], [V2], and [V3] buttons select the VIDEO 1,
VIDEO 2, and VIDEO 3 input sources respectively.
Use the SPEAKERS [A] and [B] buttons on the AV receiver or the [SP A/B]
button on the remote controller to select the speaker set that you want to
use.
Pressing the remote controller's [SP A/B] button cycles through the following settings:
→
Speaker Set A Speaker Set A&B
The A and B speaker indicators show whether
each speaker set is on or off.
Note that when speaker set B is turned on, speaker
set A is reduced to 5.1-channel playback.
Start playback on the source component.
When you select DVD or another video component, on your TV you'll need to select
the video input that's connected to the AV receiver's MONITOR OUT.
To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control, or the remote
controller's [VOL] button.
The volume can be set to MIN, 1 through 79, or MAX. The AV receiver is designed for
home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there's a temptation to set
the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what
you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.
Select a suitable listening mode and enjoy!
