Turn On Volume Level
As is the case with most audio/video receivers,
when the AVR is turned on, it will always return
to the volume setting in effect when the unit
was turned off. However, you may prefer to
always have the AVR turn on at a specific set-
ting, regardless of what was last in use when
the unit was turned off. To change the default
condition so that the same volume level is
always used at turn-on, you will need to make
an adjustment in the
SYSTEM SETUP
menu. To start the adjustment, press the OSD
button
to bring the main menu (Figure 1) to
the screen. Press the

be made with the regular volume controls.
NOTE: Since the setting for the turn-on volume
cannot be heard while the setting is being made,
you may wish to determine the setting before
making the adjustment. To do this, listen to any
source and adjust the volume to the desired
level using the regular volume controls
When the desired volume level to be used at
turn-on is reached, make a note of the setting as
it appears in the lower third of the video screen
or in the Main Information Display Ò.
A typical volume level will appear as a negative
number such as -25dB. When making the
adjustment, use the

Semi-OSD Settings

whenever the Volume, Input Source, Surround
mode or tuner frequency of any of the configura-
tion settings are changed. The semi-OSD system
is helpful in that enables you to have feedback
on any control changes or remote commands
using the video display when it is difficult to
view the front-panel displays. However, you may

prevent the menu text from burning into the
CRTs in your monitor or projector, which might
