11 SURROUND

Before playing with the surround function

•Before playing with the surround function, be sure to use the test tones to adjust the playback level from the different speakers. This adjustment can be performed with the system setup (see page 32~34) or from the remote control unit, as described below.

•Adjusting with the remote control unit using the test tones is only possible in the “Auto” mode and only effective in the STANDARD (DOLBY/DTS SURROUND) modes. The adjusted levels for the different modes are automatically stored in the memory.
