Switching on and off
When not playing, the digital surround processor should be left in the standby state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity, but ensures that the components of the digital surround processor operate at maximum efficiency from the moment you start.
If you are not going to use the digital surround processor for several days you should switch the unit completely off at the rear panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch to standby
●Press Off on the front panel or the remote.

If the digital surround processor is part of a Meridian system it will automatically switch on any other unit in the system, such as the CD player and Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.
