You may now proceed to the other Coaxial Inputs or the Optical Input. When you are done, press the Red Button N to exit the Menu.

Set Up Menu for the DVD Receiver

The next step in checking or changing the system defaults is to access the Setup Menu of the DVD receiver. First, make certain that the DVD receiver is properly connected to the screen, and that power is connected. For this process, however, you do not need to load a disc into the unit.

The Set Up of the receiver can be called at any time, even during STOP, PAUSE or PLAY mode. Now press the DVD Source Selector 0 to put the system in DVD receiver mode, followed by pressing the Set Up Button 8. This will access the Set Up Menu of the DVD receiver.

The Set Up Menu of the DVD receiver and all menus in the following section may look differ- ent, listing the settings with different languages, depending on the settings made previously. With the factory default setting all languages are set to ”English”, that´s why with all menus the English version is shown in the manual.

In the SET-UP Menu you will find submenus for making or changing all settings and adjustments for both Audio and Video handling of your Digital Lounge system.
