Consult the Owner’s Manual for your specific player or receiver for the details of how it implements this function.

36SPL Indicator Select: This button acti- vates the AVR 510’s EzSet function to quickly and accurately calibrate the AVR 510’s output levels. Press and hold the button for three sec- onds and then release it. Note that the test tone will begin circulating, and the Program/SPL Indicator c will change col- ors. During this sequence, EzSet will automati- cally adjust the output levels for all channels until they are equal, as shown by the Program/SPL Indicator lighting green for each channel. Press this button again when the adjustment is complete to turn off the test tone. (See page 24 for more information on EzSet.)
