4Plug in the receiver and switch it on, followed by your DVD player, your subwoofer and the TV.

Make sure you’ve set the video input on your TV to this receiver. Check the manual that came with the TV if you don’t know how to do this.

Also make sure that DVD/LD is showing in the receiver’s display, indicating that the DVD input is selected. If it isn’t, press DVD/LD on the remote control to set the receiver to the DVD input.

5Press QUICK SETUP on the front panel to specify your speaker setup and your room

size.

Use the MULTI JOG/INPUT SELECTOR dial to select and ENTER to confirm your selection. See Using the Quick Setup on the next page if you’re unsure about the settings.

6Play a DVD, and adjust the volume to your liking.

There are several other sound options you can select. See pages 30 to 33 for more on this. See also Choosing your receiver setup on pages 35 to 39 for more setup options.

Depending on your DVD player or source discs, you may only get digital 2 channel stereo and analog sound. In this case, the listening mode must be set to Standard (it should already be set— see page 32 if you need to do this) if you want multi-channel surround sound.
