Notes

When you play DTS encoded CD/LDs with the input mode set to AUTO:

This unit automatically switches to the DTS decoding mode. The unit remains in DTS mode (and the “t” indicator may flash) for up to 30 second after playback of the DTS source is complete. To manually release the DTS mode, press INPUT MODE to reselect AUTO.

The DTS decoding mode may be released if search or skip operations are performed for more than 30 seconds. To prevent this, press INPUT MODE to select DTS.

If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player.
