mode for the FRNT (front) speakers.

For true surround sound effect the sound from the front speakers

slightly different time. Telling the receiver how far your front and
surround speakers are from your listening position will allow the
receiver to do this correctly for you. The first distance setting you'll
see will be FRNT for your front speakers. You can set the distance
in a range from 0.3-9 metres.

8 Press the

5∞ buttons to increase/decrease

listening position and set the distance accordingly. You can set the
distance in a range from 0.3–9 metres.

3 button to select the distance

mode for the SURR (surround) speakers.

normal listening position and set the distance accordingly. As
above, you can set the distance in a range from 0.3-9 metres.

When you are finished setting up the distance the receiver will
return to normal operating mode after about 20 seconds.
Alternatively, you can cycle through the setup mode options with
the 2, 3 buttons until you return to the regular operating mode.

You only need to do the distance settings if your system has
surround speakers.
