Note

1• If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto MCACC setup (too much ambient noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary.

• Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV during Auto MCACC setup.

2If this doesn’t work, press MCACC, turn off the power, and check the problem indicated by the Error message, then try the Auto MCACC setup again.

3If Complete doesn’t appear, it is likely an error occurred during the setup. Please check all connections and try again.
