Your McIntosh MVP851 has been configured for default operating settings that will allow you to immediately enjoy superb video and high fidelity audio from a DVD or CD disc. If you wish to make changes to the default settings, a Setup feature is provided to customize the operating set- tings using On Screen Icon Menus (refer to the Setup in- structions elsewhere in this manual). Most operations that can be performed with the front panel push-buttons can also be performed with the Remote Control.

Note: Some of the MVP851 operating functions such as Disc Languages, Video Angle or Menu Language are active only if the function is supported by data encoded on the disc.
