OPERATION

Starting

Once all connections are made, switch on the unit, using the POWER button front of the unit. The MUTE LED will light. Speaker outputs are muted for about 6 seconds, so no sound will be heard from the speakers. Once the 6 seconds is up the MUTE LED goes out, indicating unit is settled, and ready for use.

Volume

The volume should be adjusted for normal listening levels. This is done by turning the volume up/down knob on the front panel. Adjusting the volume can also be achieved using the remote handset, using the volume up/down buttons (see page 8).

Mute (Remote Control only)

The sound from the speakers may be muted by use of the MUTE button on the remote. Press once, and MUTE LED will light indicating muted state. No sound will be heard from the speakers.

To return to listening; simply press the MUTE button again so MUTE LED is no longer lit.

BALANCED

To use the balanced input, connect balanced source outputs to the balanced input XLR sockets (see page 7). Select BALANCED input by pressing the BALANCED INPUT button so BALANCED INPUT LED is lit. Selecting the BALANCED input can also be achieved by pressing the corresponding button on the remote handset (see page 8).

CD

To use the CD input, connect CD player outputs to the CD input RCA sockets (see page 7). Select CD input by pressing the CD button so CD LED is lit. Selecting the CD input can also be achieved by pressing the corresponding button on the remote handsets (see page 8).

Tuner

To use the tuner input, connect tuner outputs to the TUNER input RCA sockets (see page 7). Select TUNER input by pressing the TUNER button so TUNER LED is lit. Selecting the TUNER input can also be achieved by pressing the corresponding button on the remote handset (see page 8).

AUX/HT

To use the AUX input as a standard input, move the AUX/HT switch on the back panel to the AUX position. Connect source outputs to the AUX input RCA sockets (see page 7). Select AUX input by pressing the AUX button so AUX LED is lit. Selecting the AUX input can also be achieved by pressing the corresponding button on the remote handset, (see page 8).

To use the AUX/HT input as a HT input, move the AUX/HT switch to the HT position. This input is now unaffected by the volume control, allowing volume control on an external Home Theatre processor to be used directly. Connect Home theatre or other source outputs to the AUX input RCA sockets (see page 7). Select AUX input by pressing the AUX button so AUX LED is lit.

IMPORTANT: Take great care when using the input in HT mode. Ensure that the volume control is turned right down on the HT processor when first setting up. The HT mode is designed for sources which require their own volume control to be used. Connecting sources in HT mode with no volume control could result in damage to hearing and/or speakers due to uncontrolled loud sounds.
