TESTING THE SPEAKERS

To test that all of the speakers are working properly, press the remote controller’s [TEST TONE] button. The test tone will be output by each speaker in turn and the name of each speaker will appear on the display. To turn off the test tone, press the [TEST TONE] button again.

If the test tone is not produced by a speaker, or it’s produced by a speaker other than that shown on the display, you may have wired the speakers incorrectly and you should check your connections (see page 19).
