t Direct Button: When the tuner is in use, press
this button to start the sequence for direct entry of a
station's frequency. After pressing the button simply
press the proper Numeric Keys r to select a sta-
tion. (See page 28 for more information on the tuner.)
u Tuning Up/Down: When the tuner is in use, these
buttons will tune up or down through the selected fre-
quency band. If the Tuner Mode Button s@ has
been pressed so that the Auto Indicator R is illumi-
nated, pressing either of the buttons will cause the tuner
to seek the next station with acceptable signal strength
for quality reception. When the Auto Indicator R is
NOT illuminated, pressing these buttons will tune sta-
tions in single-step increments. (See page 28 for more
information.)
v OSD Button: Press this button to activate the On
Screen Display (OSD) system used to set up or adjust
the AVR 225's parameters.
w Macro Buttons: Press these buttons to store or
recall a "Macro", which is a preprogrammed sequence
of commands stored in the remote. (See page 33 for
more information on storing and recalling macros.)
x Transport Controls: These buttons do not have
any functions with the AVR 225 but they may be pro-
grammed for the forward/reverse play operation of a
wide variety of CD or DVD players, and audio or video
cassette recorders. (See page 34 for more information
on programming the Transport Control Punch-Through
capability of the remote.)
y Skip Up/Down Buttons: These buttons have no
direct function with the AVR 225, but when used with
a compatibly programmed CD or DVD changer they
will change the track or chapter of the disc currently
being played in the changer.
z Disc Skip Button: This button has no direct
function for the AVR 225, but when used with a com-
patibly programmed CD or DVD changer, it will change
the disc currently being played in the changer. (See
page 33 for more information on using the remote
with other devices.)
` Preset Up/Down: When the tuner is in use,
press these buttons to scroll through the stations
programmed into the AVR 225's memory. When
some source devices, such as CD players, VCRs
and cassette decks, are selected using the device
Input Selectors e, these buttons may function
as Chapter Step or Track Advance.

AVR 225's output levels. Press and hold the button for
three seconds and then release it. The Test Tone will
begin circulating, and the Program/SPL Indicator c
will change colors. During this sequence, EzSet will
automatically adjust the output levels for all channels
