•Make sure the room environment follows the guidelines displayed on the OSD during auto setup. If the room environment is not optimal for auto setup (too much ambient noise, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone on the remote control, etc.) 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.

•Screens will turn off after three minutes and the receiver will automatically exit from the setup process.

•If you leave CHECK!! or other error message on the screen for three minutes, or you choose CANCEL at anytime during the setup, the settings made up to that point will be cleared.

13 Select RETURN to go back to the SYSTEM SETUP menu, then choose EXIT to complete the auto surround sound setup and return to normal use.
