The OFF setting means you are listening without a video signal. (Also, when you select CD, CD-R/TAPE1, MD/TAPE2, TUNER, PHONO, USB or functions the VIDEO SELECT will be set to off.)

After choosing a video input the display on the receiver will show that input for about 5 seconds and then revert to showing the listening mode the receiver is in.

memo • The VIDEO SELECT remains set to the input you chose until you change the audio input.

•If you change audio functions the receiver will reset itself to make the video and audio inputs correspond.

Also, if you switch the power of the receiver off when you turn it back on the video and audio in- puts will reset so that they correspond.
