You can turn your system on and off using the On/Off button on the remote control or the
media center button panel. When you turn it on with either On/Off button, the source that
was played last is automatically selected. You can also press any source button on the
remote to turn the system on and select the source at the same time.
Volume
System volume can be raised or lowered using the Volume
media center button panel.
Changing the number of speakers playing
When you turn on a source, the number of speakers used for that source is automatically
determined. For example, when you select FM, the front right and left speakers are used.
When you play a DVD video, all five speakers are turned on. You can change the number of
speakers used for any source by pressing the Speakers 2-3-5 button on the remote control.
Adjusting surround sound
The sound level of the surround (rear) speakers in your system can be adjusted in small steps
using the Surround + / – buttons on your remote. In surround (5-speaker) mode, Surround+
raises the volume; Surround– lowers it.
Using the headphones jack
For private listening, you can connect a headset to the headset jack located on the right side
of the media center. When a headset is connected, all ZONE 1 speakers are muted.
When necessary, the system settings can be changed using the system settings menus. See
"Changing System Settings" on page 22.
Your system includes a sleep timer, which can be set to turn your system off automatically
after 10 to 90 minutes of listening to any source. This timer can be accessed through the set-
tings menu. See "Using the settings menus" on page 22.
If your TV or video monitor is capable of component video input signals, and you have con-
nected your TV to your system using the component video adapter (included), you must
change the video output setting in the settings menu to "YPbPr". This will enable the media
center to send the correct video signals to your TV.
To change the video output setting, see "Using the settings menus" on page 22, and
"Changing the system setup" on page 34.
