The ANALOG indicator lights up.

7Changing the digital input mode manually—for DVD VIDEO only

If the following symptoms occur while Dolby Digital or DTS software is played back, try changing the digital input mode:

Sound does not come out at the beginning of playback.

Noise comes out while searching for or skipping chapters or tracks.

1Press INPUT ANALOG/DIGITAL (INPUT ATT.) on the front panel or ANALOG/DIGITAL INPUT on the remote control to select “DGTL AUTO.”

DGTL D.D. Select for playing back software encoded with Dolby Digital.

The DIGITAL indicator lights up*.

DGTL DTS Select for playing back software encoded with DTS.

The indicator lights up*.

*These indicators flash when no signal or a signal without the proper format is played back.

You can also change the digital input mode by pressing DECODE repeatedly on the remote control.

Notes:

When “DGTL AUTO” cannot recognize the incoming signals, no sound signal indicators light up on the display.

When you turn off the unit or select another source, “DGTL D.D.” and “DGTL DTS” are canceled.

The digital input mode is automatically reset to “DGTL AUTO.”

Attenuating the Input Signal

When the input level of the analog source is too high, the sounds will be distorted. If this happens, attenuate the input signal level to prevent this sound distortion.

• You have to make this adjustment for each analog source.

On the front panel ONLY

Press and hold INPUT ATT. (INPUT ANALOG/DIGITAL) until the INPUT ATT indicator lights up on the display.

Each time you press and hold the button, the Input Attenuator turns on (“ATT ON”) or off (“ATT NORMAL”).
