Resetting the Remote

To reset the remote to its factory defaults, simultaneously press and hold the TV Source Selector and the “0” Alphanumeric Key. When the TV Button re-lights, enter the code “333”. When the TV Button goes out, and all of the Source Selectors flash, the remote will be reset.

PROCESSOR RESET

If the unit behaves erratically after a power surge, first tun off the Main Power Switch and unplug the AC power cord for at least

3 minutes. Plug the cord back in and turn the receiver on. If this doesn’t help, reset the AVR.
