7 TV CONTROL buttons

These buttons are dedicated to control the TV assigned to the TV CTRL button. Thus if you only have one TV to hook up to this system assign it to the TV CTRL input source button. If you have two TVs, assign the main TV to the TV CTRL button (see page 57 for more on this).

TV – Use to turn on/off the power of the TV.

TV VOL +/– – Use to adjust the volume on your TV. INPUT SELECT – Use to select the TV input signal. TV CH +/– – Use to select channels.

8 Component control buttons

The main buttons (, , etc.) are used to control a component after you have selected it using the input source buttons.

The controls above these buttons can be accessed after you have selected the corresponding input source button (for example DVD, DVR1 or TV). The following controls can be accessed when listening to the built-in tuner:

MPX – Switches between stereo and mono reception of FM broadcasts. If the signal is weak then switching to mono will improve the sound quality (page 35).

DISP – Switches between named station presets and radio frequencies (page 36). Also used to display RDS information (page 36).

EON – Use to search for programs that are broadcasting traffic or news information (page 37).
