	Low: Small reduction in dynamic
	range.
	High: Big reduction in dynamic
	range.

Notes:

•The effect of the Late Night function depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with some material there will be little or no effect.

•The Late Night function is set to Off when the DVD receiver is set to Standby.
