FRONT PANEL (SEE PAGE VII)

q POWER switch and STANDBY indicator

You can turn on and off the unit’s power using the front panel power

switch.

However, if you turn the unit off with the front panel switch, the unit

goes completely off rather than to the “standby mode” (Red LED

indicator light glows in the standby mode).

The unit cannot be turned on with the remote control when it is not in

the standby mode. When the red LED is on, the unit can be turned on

via the remote control or by pressing any input selector button on the

front panel.

w 6CH INPUT button

Press this button to select the output of an external multi channel

decoder.

e A/D (Analog/Digital) SELECTOR button

This is used to select between the analog and digital inputs.

Note:

This button is not used for an input source that is not connected to

a digital input in the system setup 2/2.

The selection made with this button is not stored in the unit's

memory. This means that the status which was set in the SYSTEM

SETUP 2/2 will be restored when the input function is switched or

after the unit has been placed in the standby mode.

r BASS and TREBLE tone controls

These controls are used to boost or cut high and low frequencies.

TREBLE: Adjusts the tone of high-frequency sound.

BASS: Adjusts the tone of low-frequency sound.

Notes:

These buttons are disable in Source Direct mode,Pure Direct

mode, SRS mode, Dolby Virtual mode, 6ch input, and Dolby

Headphone mode.

Additionally these are not effective during playback of 96k PCM

audio signal.

t SOURCE DIRECT button

When this button is pressed, the tone control circuitry is bypassed as

well as Bass Management.

y PURE DIRECT button

This is used to select the PURE DIRECT mode.

In contrast to the SOURCE-DIRECT mode, the front panel display

circuit is completely shut down, and then the video output circuit is

shut down.

u Surround MODE buttons

(AUTO, 2, SRS, 6.1, STEREO, 5ch STEREO)

Press the desired button to select surround mode.

i NIGHT MODE buttons

This is used to select the NIGHT mode.

Selecting the Night Mode On is effective in Dolby Digital only, and it

compresses the dynamic range.

This softens loud passages such as sudden explosions, to help

prevent disturbing others late at night.

o DOLBY HEADPHONE MODE buttons

This is used to select the operation mode of the Dolby Headphone

when using headphones for listening.

!0 PHONES jack for stereo headphones

Conventional dynamic headphones can be plugged in here.

!1 INFRARED SENSOR window

This window receives infrared signals from the remote control unit.

!2 VOLUME control knob

Adjusts the overall sound level. Turning the control clockwise

increases the sound level.

The sound level operations can also be controlled from the provided

remote controll unit.

!3 Warm-up meter

With any audio unit, the real sound quality cannot be obtained

immediately after the power is turned on, and warming up is required

to make the unit exhibit its full performance. As time passes after the

power has been turned ON, the temperatures of different parts of the

unit become constant and the electrolytic capacitors become active.

This meter allows to check the warm-up condition of the unit.

The meter needle starts to swing gradually in a little while after the

power is turned ON and reaches about 2/3 of the meter’s full scale in

about 30 minutes. Now the unit has almost been warmed up and can

reproduce music with its original performance.

The meter positions immediately after turning power on and at the

end of warming up and the time taken for warming up are variable

depending on the temperature, ventilation and other conditions of the

listening room where the unit is located.

!4 INPUT SELECTOR knob

When this knob is turned, the input signal is switched in the following

sequence.

This knob can also be used to turn the unit’s power on when it is in the

standby mode.
