You will see “Memory” immediately above the broadcast frequency in
the front panel and on-screen displays.

30) using the remote’s numeric keypad.
. Wait a few seconds as the present number is entered into the
Model 970’s memory.
The first digit of the preset number will blink. This is your indication
that the memory is being loaded.
5. The word MEMORY changes to PRESET and the first digit of the
number will stop flashing.
This is your indication that the preset number has been memorized.
NOTE: If the memory number you have chosen was previously used

Using Headphones
The Model 970’s front headphone jack allows you to listen in private without
disturbing others nearby. You may enjoy headphone listening in either pure
stereo or thanks to the Model 970’s Dolby Headphone processing, you can enjoy
a realistic surround-sound effect even when using headphones.
The Model 970 has a 1/4-inch headphone jack, which accommodates the
1/4-inch plugs found on most quality headphones. If you want to use portable-
style headphones such as those included with portable CD or MP3 players, you
will need a stereo 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch adapter, which is readily available at
RadioShack and other electronics stores.
To use the headphones:
1. Plug a set of headphones in to the front panel using the headphone
jack.
The signal to the main speaker outputs will automatically mute when
the headphones are in use.
. Use the HEADPHONE LEVEL CONTROL to the right of the
headphone jack to set the sound level for the headphones
The main system front panel or remote volume controls do not have any
influence on the headphone level setting.
CAUTION: We recommend that you turn the headphone level control
all the way down before using headphones for the first time, and then
slowly increasing the level by turning the knob to the right. This avoids
the chance that you might damage your hearing by encountering a
headphone level that is too high. Always use caution and good sense
when setting the headphone level, as high levels may cause hearing
damage. Listening to headphones for prolonged periods at high vol-
ume levels can permanently damage your hearing
The headphones may be used in either the Stereo or Dolby Headphone mode.
To change the setting, go to the Surround Configuration Menu, following the
instructions shown on page 31.
