System Operation

Making it all work together smoothly

By pressing any source button on the LIFESTYLE® remote control, you can turn on the sys- tem and select that source at the same time. Or, press the On/Off button on the remote control or on the media center control panel. This turns the system on to the source that was last used.

To use the system with your TV and other components, review the reminders below. They are provided to help ensure that it all works together smoothly.

Note: For information on how to set the remote to operate other components, refer to “Using your LIFESTYLE® remote with other components” on page 18.

To turn on other components

You need to:

1.Turn on the system.

2.Select the source.

3.Turn the source on (if it is an external component).

You can use your LIFESTYLE® remote control to do all of that, once you have set it to operate the TV and other components.

To watch video

Your installation choices may require some activation settings, as indicated below.

•Getting the image to the TV screen:

–Be sure to select the proper Video input on your TV (consistent with the video input that the media center connects to on the back of the TV). Use the TV Input button on the LIFESTYLE® remote control.

•Using the component video connection option:

–If you have a component video connection between the TV and the media center, be sure to make that selection on the display of the media center. Until you do, you may see nothing on your screen when you select DVD as the source.

•Using the progressive scan capability of your TV:

–Make sure there is a component video connection between the TV and the media center.

–Be sure to make the Progressive selection on the display of the media center. Until you do, you may see nothing on your screen when you select DVD as the source.

–For other video components connected to the media center, make sure the component is also connected using a component video adapter.

Note: For information on selecting component video or progressive scan on the media center, refer to “Activating component or progressive scan connections” on page 11.
