Set the distance between the

 

 

center speaker and the listening

 

position.

 

The distance changes in units of 1

 

foot (0.1 meters) each time the

 

button is pressed. Select the value

 

closest to the measured distance.

Example: When the distance is set to 12 feet for the center speaker

If “Yes” is selected for “Default”, the settings are automatically reset to the default values.

Please note that the difference of distance for every speaker should be 15 ft (4.5 m) or less. If you set an invalid distance, a CAUTION notice, such as screen right will appear. In this case, please relocate the blinking speaker(s) so that its distance is no larger than the value shown in highlighted line.
