SET AUDIO MO DE

The Audio Mode switches auto- matically to the type of audio on the disc you are playing.

•If you play a DVD with either Dolby Digital or DTS audio, the "5.1" mode is selected automatically and sound is heard from all 5 satellites and the subwoofer.

•If you play a DVD with a stereo soundtrack (PCM only, not Dolby Digital 2.0), a VCD or an audio CD, the "Pro Logic" mode is selected automatically as default setting.

Notes:

•With all discs containing no Dolby Digital or DTS audio the default listening mode will be stereo, as indicated in the front display (no Pro Logic indicator is on), and the sound will only be heard from the left and right front speakers and the subwo- ofer. The center and rear speakers will have output only when a Pro Logic listening mode is selected with the LISTENING button on the remote.
