Full Auto ("F-AUTO"):

The unit detects the digital or analog input signal automatically. The unit selects the input mode and listen mode automatically during playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital, DTS or PCM) and the speaker setting. Normally use Full Auto.

In this mode, "AUTO DETECT" indicator lights up. "DIGITAL" indicator also lights up when digital input signal comes in.

"AUTO DETECT" and "DIGITAL" indicators

Setting the speaker status (main unit only)

Press [SPEAKERS ON/OFF] to switch the speaker on or off.

The speaker indicator lights up when set to on.

Note:

Set Speakers to OFF for stereo playback. When Speakers is set to ON again, the listen mode remains in stereo if the input signal is digital.

Digital Manual ("D-MANUAL"):

Some discs produce sound skipping even when "F- AUTO" is set. Select "D-MANUAL" with such a disc. Digital Manual accelerates the input signal processing by fixing the listen mode and therefore minimizes sound skipping during disc playback.

If audio reproduction stops in the middle due to change in the input signal, press [LISTEN MODE].

6ch input ("6CH INPT"):

Select this setting to play the DVD player connected to DVD/6CH IN jacks.

Analog input ("ANALOG"):

Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR, or record player.

Note:

If [INPUT MODE] is pressed too quickly, sound may not be produced. Press [INPUT MODE] again.
