Frequently asked questions

The new speaker system does not provide an ideal sound
balance...

If you have changed speakers or have a new speaker system, use “Auto Setup” to optimize the speaker settings again (p.41). If you want to adjust the speaker settings manually, use “Manual Setup” in the “Setup” menu (p.103).

Since we have small children, we want to set limitations on the
volume control...

If a small child accidentally operates the controls on the main unit or remote control, the volume may suddenly increase. This may also cause injury or damage the unit or speakers. We recommend using “Max Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the maximum volume level for the unit in advance (p.107). You can also set the maximum volume for Zone2 (p.112).

I am occasionally startled by a sudden loud sound when turning
on the unit...

By default, the volume level when the unit last entered standby mode is automatically applied. If you want to fix the volume, use “Initial Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the volume to be applied when the receiver is turned on (p.107). You can also set the initial volume for Zone2 (p.112).

We are bothered by volume differences when switching between input sources…

You can correct volume differences between input sources by utilizing “Input Trim” in the “Option” menu (p.89).

I made HDMI connections but HDMI Control does not work at
all...

To use HDMI Control, you need to perform the HDMI Control link setup (p.141). After connecting HDMI Control-compatible devices (such as BD/DVD players) to the unit,

enable HDMI Control on each device and perform the HDMI Control link setup. This setup is required every time you add a new HDMI Control-compatible device to your system. For information on how HDMI Control works between your TV and playback devices, refer to the instruction manuals for each device.

I want to turn off the on-screen messages displayed during
operations...

By default, short messages are displayed on the TV screen when the unit is operated (such as input selection and volume adjustment). If the short messages bother you when you are watching movies or sports, configure “Short Message” (p.114) in the “Setup” menu to turn off the short messages.

I want to prevent accidental changes to the settings...

You can protect the settings configured on the unit (such as speaker settings) by utilizing “Memory Guard” in the “Setup” menu (p.116).

The unit’s remote control is simultaneously controlling another
Yamaha product as well as the unit...

When using multiple Yamaha products, the remote control may work on another Yamaha product or another remote control may work on the unit. If this happens, register different remote control IDs for the devices that you want to control with each remote control (p.120).

I want to enjoy videos/audio played back on the video device
even when the unit is in standby mode...

If you have connected a video device to the unit with HDMI, you can output videos/audio played back on the video device to the TV even when the unit is in standby mode. To use this function, set “Standby Through” (p.110) in the “Setup” menu to “On”. You can also switch the input source using the remote control of the unit when this function is enabled.
