Calibrate the sound level

When you have connected speakers in a surround sound setup to the television, you must perform a speaker calibration.

A calibration sound is produced alternately in each of the speakers you have connected in your surround sound setup. Your task is to adjust the sound level from all the connected speakers to match the sound level from the centre speaker. You can choose whether you want the sound sequence to occur automatically or manually.

Once you have performed your speaker calibration, you will only need to re-calibrate the speaker sound if you make changes to the setup, for example, if you move one or more of the speakers.

To calibrate the sound level …

>Press GO to bring up the SPEAKER LEVEL menu. SEQUENCE is highlighted.

>Press  or  to choose between AUTOMATIC and MANUAL.

>Press  or  to adjust the speaker sound and

 or  to move to another speaker.
