Notes:

• The volume level can be adjusted within the range of “– – – dB” (minimum), “–71.0 dB” to “+18.0 dB” (maximum).

• If you set One Touch Operation to “ON” (see page 44), you do not have to adjust the volume level each time you change the source. It is automatically set to the stored level. (However, if you have turned off the receiver with the volume level set at more than level “–35 dB,” the volume level will be automatically set at level “–35 dB” next time you turn on the receiver.)
