•Loud test sounds may be played during Audyssey MultEQ XT automatic speaker setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test signals will increase in volume.
•Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.
•Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
Cell phones should be placed away from all audio electronics during the measurement process as Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is not in use).
•Operating MASTER VOLUME during the measurements will cancel the measurements.
