How Do I Adjust the Sound?

Muting Sound

The sound can be muted temporarily.

•Press the MUTE button on Remote Control unit. The MUTE indicator on the receiver panel blinks during muting.

Use one of the following methods to cancel muting.

•Adjust the Volume control on either the receiver or Remote Control unit.

•Press the MUTE button again.

The MUTE indicator on the receiver panel goes off.

Midnight Theater Function (Dolby Digital, DTS and DTS-ES only) Any time you don’t want to experience the loud and soft volume extremes of recorded sound (for example, late at night), use midnight theatre function to reduce volume extremes. This feature keeps loud, dramatic sound from being too loud (perhaps disturbing family members or neighbors) while ensuring that you can still hear whispered dialog or other soft sounds.

Midnight theater function only works if you are listening to a Dolby Digital program or DTS (DTS-ES) that has been encoded with special compression data.

To use the Midnight Theater function:

1.Press the SOUND button on the Remote Control unit repeatedly un- til Midnight 1, 2 or Off is displayed.
