You must first engage this feature by pressing enter, then volume ± to toggle DISABLED to ENABLED. This enables a menu that in turn has several submenus, examples of which are shown below:

This extra step ensures that any automated changes of output levels are consciously chosen and therefore less likely to cause surprises. It also allows you to disable all the surround mode defaults in one easy step, should you decide at some future date to return to the calibrated settings for all your routine listening.
2SELECT THE SURROUND MODE YOU WOULD LIKE TO MODIFY
For example, when you have selected the Dolby Digital mode, you might see a screen that looks something like this:
DOLBY DIGITAL
CENTER: 0.0
SURROUNDS: 0.0
BACKS: 0.0
SUB: 0.0
SUB MODE: FORCE ON
THX: ON
Other surround modes may have fewer items, since only those adjustments that are appropriate to a given surround mode are displayed. Thus, (for ex- ample) center, surrounds and backs are omitted on
3ADJUST THE LEVEL OF CENTER, REAR AND SUB CHANNELS RELATIVE TO
THE FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS TO SUIT YOUR PREFERENCE
Using the volume ± buttons, move the cursor to the item you wish to ad- just; press enter; then adjust the setting with the volume ± buttons. Save each setting as you go along by pressing enter.
