3 Adjust the speaker levels and balance using the LEVEL menu so that the level of the test tone sounds the same from each speaker.

For details on the LEVEL menu settings, see page 26.

•To adjust the level of all speakers at the same time, press MASTER VOL +/– on the remote or turn MASTER VOLUME –/+ on the receiver.

•The adjusted value are shown in the display during adjustment.

4 Press TEST TONE again after adjustment.

The test tone turns off.

Notes

•Although these adjustments can also be made via the front panel using the LEVEL menu (when the test tone is output, the receiver switches to the LEVEL menu automatically), we recommend you follow the procedure described above and adjust the speaker levels from your listening position using the remote.

•The bass redirection circuitry is always active, so you may hear some sound output from the sub woofer when test tone is output from other speakers. However, this is not a malfunction.
