IMPORTANT NOTE: Some manufacturers preset their receivers with the Sub-Out channel signal at a minimum level. It is very important to verify that your receiver Sub-Out channel is set to the same output level, or higher, as your front right and left channels. Refer to your receiver manual for the individual channel level adjustment procedure.

WARNING: If your receiver Sub-Out channel is set too low, the subwoofer may appear to have a weak output, it may sound noisy or distorted, and the Auto-On/Off feature may not work properly.

Auto - On/Off Featur e

The auto-on/off feature allows the subwoofer to turn itself off when not in use. On the top front panel display; press both the left button (Movies) and right button (Games).

NOTE: When pressing both the Movies and the Games buttons, the timing is critical - both buttons must be depressed at exactly the same time for the feature to work.

-If the center LED blinks for approximately five seconds, the auto-on/off feature is activated. If activated, the subwoofer will monitor its input, and if there is no signal present for approximately 15 minutes, it will shut down and go into standby mode. As soon as a signal is present again, the subwoofer will immediately turn itself back on.

-If the center LED blinks for approximately two seconds, the auto-on/off feature is bypassed. The subwoofer will remain on until the power switch is turned off.

WARNING: If the Sub-Out channel signal level from your receiver is too weak, this feature will not operate properly. See VOLUME CONTROL section.

Light Contr ol Function

If you wish, you can deactivate the blue front panel lights on your DPS unit. To do this, press both the volume up and volume down buttons simultaneously — the power and preset lights should turn off. To reactivate the lights, press both volume buttons again.
