Notes

You cannot use the test tone if headphones are connected to the PHONES jack. Remove the headphones from the PHONES jack.

This operation will override the level adjustments made in “SETUP” (see page 20).

You cannot adjust speaker levels if “SPEAKER SET” in “SOUND MENU” (see page 53) is set to “NONE”.

You cannot adjust the subwoofer level if “BASS” in “SPEAKER SET” (see page 53) in the set menu is set to “FRNT”.

If you use TEST to adjust speaker levels, the speaker levels you previously adjust during playback will also change.

If you select “SETUP” (see page 20) and then select “SET”, speaker levels change in response to any changes you make in “SETUP”.

Depending on the source, the speaker levels set with the test tone may not be to your liking. In this case, adjust the speaker levels while listening to the source.
