4Plug in the receiver and switch it on, followed by your DVD player, your subwoofer and the TV. Make sure you’ve set the video input on your TV to this receiver. Check the manual that came with the TV if you don’t know how to do this.

5Use the on-screen automatic MCACC setup to set up your system.

See Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on the next page for more on this.

6Play a DVD, and adjust the volume to your liking. Make sure that DVD/LD is showing in the receiver’s display, indicating that the DVD input is selected. If it isn’t, press DVD/LD on the remote control to set the receiver to the DVD input.

In addition to the basic playback explained in Playing a source on page 13, there are several other sound options you can select. See Listening to your system on page 30 for more on this. See also Making receiver settings from the System Setup menu on page 38 for more setup options.

•If you’re not familiar with the proper DVD settings, refer to Checking the settings on your DVD (or other) player on page 13.
