The normal display resumes in three seconds. Note When the subwoofer mode is set to Mode 2 or Mode 3 and audio is reproduced in the Stereo mode, the subwoofer may not output audio from certain sources (2 channel-Dolby Digital/DTS source etc.). Adjusting each speaker's relative volume balance - Test tone Adjust each speaker's relative volume balance so that the volumes of all speakers' test tones sound equal at the listening position. Adjust the volume to your normal listening level, prior to commencing settings. Note You cannot adjust the volume balance while the muting function is activated. 1.

Press CH SEL repeatedly to select the speaker, then press LEVEL / on the remote controller to adjust the volume level. When CH SEL is pressed repeatedly, each speaker produces the test tone (pink noise) in the following order: Left → Center → Right → Surr Right → Surr Left → Subwoofer. The volume level can be adjusted between -12dB and +12dB. Notes • No test tone will be emitted from the speaker which is not included in the speaker configuration on page 18 even if it is actually connected. • No test tone will be emitted from the subwoofer when the subwoofer mode is set to "Subwoofer Off". • Even when CH SEL is not pressed, the test tone will move to the next speaker in 2 seconds. 3. When you have completed the adjustment by repeating step 2, press TEST. The test tone stops and the normal display resumes. Note Even if you don't press TEST, the test tone will stop after 2 minutes. 20
