NOTES:

•The surround speaker setting can also be changed with the SPEAKER button on the remote control unit.

•When “Default” is selected and the F courser button is pressed, “CINEMA EQ.” and “D.COMP.” are automatically turned off, “ROOM SIZE” is set to “medium”, “EFFECT LEVEL” to “10” and “DELAY TIME” to “30ms”.

•The “ROOM SIZE” expresses the expansion effect for the different surround modes in terms of the size of the sound field, not the actual size of the listening room.
