DTS Digital Mode Select Button: When a DTS-encoded digital source is playing, each press of this button will scroll through the available DTS modes. The specific choice of modes will vary according to the type of encoding on the disc and your system’s speaker configuration. When a DTS source is not in use, this button has no function. (See page 31 for the available DTS digital options.)

Dolby Mode Select Button: This button is used to select from the available Dolby Surround modes. Each press of this button will select one of the Dolby Pro Logic II modes or Dolby 3 Stereo. When a Dolby Digital-encoded source is in use, the Dolby Digital mode may also be selected. (See page 31 for the available Dolby surround mode options.)

6-Channel/8-Channel Input Select: Press this button to select the device connected to the 6- or 8- Channel Direct Inputs 40 . (See page 29 for more information.)

SPL Select Button: This button activates the EzSet function to quickly and accurately calibrate the AVR 430’s output levels. When the button is pressed you will then need to select between automatic EzSet operation or using the remote as a manual SPL meter by pressing the /¤ Navigation Button o until your choice appears in the remote’s LCD display. Press the Set Button q to enter the setting, and then follow the instructions as displayed in the LCD display. (For complete information, see page 26.)

EzSet Microphone Sensor: The microphone sensor that is used by the EzSet system is behind the three slots at the top of the remote control. When using EzSet to calibrate the AVR 430, be certain that the slots are not covered. (See page 26 for more information on using EzSet.)

Lens: The infrared emitters behind the plastic lens at the top of the remote communicate the remote codes to the AVR 430. Be certain that the lens is not covered when using the remote, and point the lens toward the AVR for best results. In learning mode, the remote receives IR codes to be learned through a sensor behind the lens.

NOTE: DO NOT remove the rubber plug that is supplied to cover the jack on the upper right side of the remote. The jack is not active and is reserved for future use.
