For information display we recommend you use the OSD on your TV/screen whenever possible. However, all key information is also duplicated one line at a time on the front panel display of the AVR250.
Switching on/off
Press the power button in. After approximately two seconds, the power LED will turn green and the current input and volume level will be shown; after a further 10 seconds, the AVR250 is ready for use.
Please wait until the unit has finished initialising before attempting to operate the AVR250. It is recommended that if the unit is switched off, you should wait at least 10 seconds before switching the unit back on.

Volume control
To adjust the volume level of the loudspeakers,
It is important to realise that the value indicated for the volume level is not an accurate indication of the power delivered to your loudspeakers. The AVR250 may deliver its full output power long before the volume control reaches its maximum position, particularly when listening to heavily recorded music. In comparison, some movie soundtracks can appear to be very quiet, as many directors like to keep the maximum levels in reserve for special effect sequences.
The volume can be controlled over a range of 100dB in 1dB steps.
Muting the volume
Pressing the MUTE button will mute the output of the AVR250 to the speakers and from the
Press MUTE for a second time (or adjust the volume) to exit the mute state.
Front panel display
In normal operation, the display shows the current volume setting, with the source shown on the left- hand side of the display. Smaller illuminated areas indicate the audio input type (digital or analogue) and the digital stream type (if applicable). If the processing mode changes (for example, from Dolby Pro Logic decoding to Dolby Digital 5.1), then this will be displayed in large letters for about two seconds.
Changing the display brightness
It is possible to select the illumination level of the front panel display. Press DIS on the remote to cycle through the three illumination levels (Off/Dim/Bright).
