Cautions on handling
• Before turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are
no problems with the connection cables.
• Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is
set to the standby mode. When traveling or leaving home for long
periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power
outlet.
• About Condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of
the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on
the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate
properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power
turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature
before using the unit.
• Cautions on using mobile phones
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If so, move
the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.
• Moving the unit
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power
outlet. Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units
before moving the unit.
• About Care
• Wipe the cabinet and control panel clean with a soft cloth.
• Follow the instructions when using a chemical cleaner.
• Benzene, paint thinner or other organic solvents as well as
insecticide may cause material changes and discoloration if brought
into contact with the unit, and should, therefore, not be used.

The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are
measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called
“Audyssey Auto Setup”.
To perform measurement, place the setup microphone in multiple locations all
around the listening area. For best results, we recommend you measure in six
positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six positions).
• When performing Audyssey Auto Setup, MultEQ®/Dynamic EQ®/Dynamic
Volume™ functions become active (vpage49, 50).
• To set up the speakers manually, use “Speaker Setup” (vpage52) on the menu.
NOTE
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close
windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances,
light dimmers, or other devices as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
• Cell phones should be placed away from all audio electronics during the measurement process as Radio
Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is not in use).
• Do not unplug the setup microphone from the main unit until Audyssey Auto Setup is completed.
• Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the
measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.
• Loud test sounds may be played during Audyssey Auto setup. This is part of
normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test signals will
increase in volume.
• Operating
• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected.

About setup microphone placement
• Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone successively at multiple positions
throughout the entire listening area, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend you
measure in six positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six positions).
• Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample wH, measuring at multiple points
throughout the listening environment results in more effective correction.

About the main listening position (*M)
The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit or where one would
normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before starting Audyssey Auto Setup, place the setup
microphone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ® uses the measurements from this position
to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

Set up
the microphone
Mount the setup microphone on a
tripod or stand and place it in the
main listening position.
When placing the setup microphone, adjust
the height of the sound receptor part to the
