Important Notes:
•To change the surround sound settings, the receiver must be in a surround mode that uses all the speakers (for example, Dolby Digital).
•The center and surround speakers only operate when the receiver is set to a surround sound mode and the source material being played is recorded or broadcast in Dolby Digital, DTS or Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
•Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce some surround channel effects when played in a surround mode. However, mono sources will not produce any sound from the surround speakers.
