Adjustment mode.
• An opening beep sounds and the selected channel
number will be announced.
4. Push [Upper] to change the beep level.
• A beep sounds every time you push [Upper].
Therefore, you can determine the current level setting
by the increasing loudness of the beep that sounds.
InformationL
• The adjustable range is 1 to 5 or 1 (Linked) to 5
(Linked).
• Repeatedly pushing [Upper] rst selects 1 (lowest) to
5 (highest), and then selects the lowest linked level,
