You can also choose to view all the settings by selecting Next. Press ENTER after you have finished checking each screen. When you�re finished, select Exit to go back to the Surround Setup menu. Note � If you leave a check screen for over three minutes, or if you select Cancel at any time during the Auto Surround Setup, the receiver automatically exits and no settings will be made. � Remember to disconnect the microphone after you�ve finished the Auto Surround Setup.
Playing a source
Here are the basic instructions for playing a source (such as a DVD disc) with your home theater system. 1 Turn on the power of the playback component (for example a DVD player), your TV and subwoofer (if you have one). � If your source is the TV�s built-in tuner, then switch to the channel you want to watch, otherwise make sure that the TV�s video input is set to this receiver. (For example, if you connected this receiver to the VIDEO 1 jacks on your TV, make sure that VIDEO 1 input is now selected.) 2 If the receiver isn�t already on, press to switch it on. RECEIVER
Other problems when using the Auto Surround Setup
If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto Surround Setup (too much background noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary. Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV when doing the Auto Surround Setup.
3 Change the receiver input to the source you want to play. You can use the front panel MULTI JOG dial or the dedicated MULTI CONTROL buttons on the remote control. 4 Start playback of the DVD (or other component). If you�re playing a Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound DVD disc, you should hear surround sound. If you are playing a stereo source, you will only hear sound from the front left/right speakers in the default listening mode. � See also Listening to your system on page 37 for more information on different ways of listening to sources. 5 Use the MASTER VOLUME control (front panel or remote) to adjust the volume level. � Turn down the volume of your TV so that all the sound is coming from the speakers connected to this receiver. Note � For more detailed surround sound setup, see The Surround Setup menu on page 50.
Checking the settings on your DVD (or other) player
Before continuing, you may want to check the digital audio output settings on your DVD player and digital satellite receiver. � Check that your DVD player/satellite receiver is set to output Dolby Digital, DTS and 88.2/96kHz PCM (2 channel) audio. If there is an option for MPEG audio, set this to convert the MPEG audio to PCM. If you connected the multichannel analog outputs of the player to this receiver, make sure that the player is set to output multichannel analog audio. Note � Depending on your DVD player or source discs, you may only get digital 2 channel stereo and analog sound. In this case, select one of the surround listening modes (see Listening in surround sound on page 37 if you need to do this) if you want multichannel surround sound.
