Before you perform Auto Calibration, check the following items: Set up and connect the speakers. Do not connect any microphones other than the supplied calibration microphone to the CALIBRATION MIC jack. If using a bi-amplifier connection or a front B speaker connection, set the assignment for the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK/HEIGHT terminals properly. Set the speaker output to a setting other than [SPK OFF]. Disconnect the headphones. Remove any obstructions between the calibration microphone and the speakers. For accurate measurement, make sure the environment is quiet and free from noise. Note Auto Calibration is not available when [Bluetooth Mode] is set to [Transmitter]. The speakers emit very loud sound during the calibration and the volume cannot be adjusted. Be considerate of your neighbors and any children who are present. If the muting function has been activated before you perform Auto Calibration, the muting function will shut off automatically. It may not be possible to take the correct measurements or to perform Auto Calibration at all if special speakers such as dipole speakers are used. [49] Preparation Performing Auto Calibration 3.
