IntelliVolume setup

The output level of each component or source connected to your receiver varies, even when the sound volume setting is same.

1.Select the source to which you wish to set IntelliVolume by pressing the corresponding input selector button.

2.Press the SP/SYS SETUP button repeatedly until “IntelliVolume?” appears. Press the SMART SCAN CON-

TROLLER.

Now you can perform IntelliVolume setup.

3.While listening to playback sound, rotate the SMART SCAN CONTROLLER to select a desired value.

The setting is possible in the range between -12 ~ +12 dB,in units of 1 dB.

Press the SMART SCAN CONTROLLER.
