If you don’t hear a test tone from one of your speakers, please refer to Speaker setting on page 32 to make sure you have correctly specified your speaker setup.

3Press VOLUME +/– to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.

4Use LEVEL +/– to adjust the speaker levels in turn.

You should hear the test tone at the same volume from each speaker when seated in the main listening position. The channel level range is ± 10 dB.

5When you’re done, press TEST TONE to turn off the test tone.

The speaker volume can be adjusted without outputting the test tone by pressing CH SELECT and then using LEVEL +/–. However, you can only adjust the level of the speakers currently active in the mode you're listening to. You can set separate levels for the

STANDARD, STEREO and DVD 5.1 ch modes, as well as for each ADVANCED SURROUND mode.

•Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra-low frequency its sound may seem quieter than it actually is.

•Using test tones to set up your speaker system will overwrite any previous settings you had for the STANDARD or ADVANCED SURROUND modes.
