front panel, and it will count down until the time has elapsed.
When the programmed sleep time has elapsed, the unit will
automatically turn off.

DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital.
When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital,
sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display
which will read "Dial Norm X dB" (X being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material
has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example,
if you see the following message: "Dial Norm + 4 dB" in the front panel
display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the
volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you
are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual.
If you do not see a message in the front panel display, then no
adjustment of the volume control is necessary.
