Reducing the level of an analog signal
The input attenuator lowers the input level of an analog
signal when it’s too strong. You can use this if you find
the that the OVER indicator is lights often, or you can
hear distortion in the sound.

• Press ANALOG ATT to switch the input attenuator
on or off.
Watching video and audio sources
independently
You can listen to a sound source and select a different
video source on your TV.

Using the sleep timer
The sleep timer switches the receiver into standby after a
specified amount of time so you can fall asleep without
worrying about the receiver being left on all night. Use
the remote control to set the sleep timer.
• Press SLEEP repeatedly to set the sleep time.
• You can check the remaining sleep time at any time
by pressing SLEEP once. Pressing repeatedly will
cycle through the sleep options again.

Dimming the display
You can choose between four brightness levels for the
front panel display. Note that when selecting sources,
the display automatically brightens for a few seconds.
• Press DIMMER repeatedly to change the brightness
of the front panel display.
Switching the speaker impedance
We recommend using speakers of 8Ω with this system,
but it is possible to switch the impedance setting if you
plan to use speakers with a 6Ω impedance rating.
• With the receiver in standby, press STANDBY/
ON while holding down the SPEAKERS button.
Each time you do this, you switch between the
impedance settings:
• SP 6 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 6Ω.
• SP 8 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 8Ω or more.
Checking your system settings
Use the status display screen to check your current
settings for features such as surround back channel
processing and your current MCACC preset.
1 Press STATUS to check the system settings.
These appear on both the OSD and the front panel
display.
