• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sun­light or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote control­ler may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything on top of the remote controller, such as a book or magazine, because a button may be pressed continuously, thereby draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obsta­cle between it and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor.

Connecting Your Speakers

Enjoying Home Theater

Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs featuring Dolby Digital or DTS. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.
Front left and right speakers
These output the main sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
Center speaker
This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV (preferably on top) facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The vol­ume and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the front wall, as shown.
Tip: To find the best position for your sub­woofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room and choose the one that provides the most sat­isfying results.
1/3 of wall position
Surround left and right speakers
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience.
Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered sub­woofer is recommended for a powerful and solid bass.
Before using the AV receiver, you must specify which speakers are connected and their sizes (see page 35).
To get the very best from your surround-sound system, you should also specify the distance between the listener and each individual speaker so that the sound from each speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see page 36). In addition, you should set the level of each individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see page 37.)
Using Dipole Speakers
You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and right. Dipole speakers output the same sound in two directions.
Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to indicate how they should be positioned. The surround left and right dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward your TV or screen.

Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
•You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp pro­tection circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) termi­nals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker termi­nal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect a speaker to several terminals.
Connecting the Speaker Cables
Strip about 5/8" (15

Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.
•For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possi­ble noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.
•For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock haz­ards.
Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter
It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If cir­cumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

See the manuals supplied with your TV or VCR/DVR for details.
•Video signals connected to composite video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be connected to the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. Likewise, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT S jack.

Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI
Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, or multichannel PCM).
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)
The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components will display a picture.
The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:
Repeater System, x.v. Color, Lip Sync, Dolby Digital Plus, and Multichannel PCM
Supported Audio Formats
• 2-channel linear PCM (16/20/24 bit/32–192kHz)
• Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192kHz)
• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS)
Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.
*1
so TVs and displays
About Copyright Protection
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.
Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG *2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to
protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

Making HDMI Connections

If you have an HDMI-compatible player, you can connect it to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable.
Step 1: Use HDMI cables to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks to your HDMI-compatible DVD player, TV, projector, and so on.
Step 2: Assign each HDMI IN to an input selector in the HDMI Input Setup (see page 39).
Audio Signals
Digital audio signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the speakers and headphones connected to the AV receiver. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI OUT, unless the AudioTVOut setting is set to On (see page 64).
To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the AudioTVOut setting to On (see page 64), and set your DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

Notes:
• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.
•To listen to an HDMI source component through the AV receiver, you must configure your system so that video from the HDMI source component can be displayed on your TV (i.e., on your TV, select the HDMI input that’s connected to the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT). This is necessary because a component identification check has to be performed on your TV before an HDMI source component can output any signals. If your TV is off or set to a different input source, the AV receiver may produce no sound or the sound may be distorted.
• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

About the Listening Modes

The AV receiver’s listening modes can transform your listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with high fidelity and stunning surround sound.
The illustration shows which speakers are active in each listening mode with 5.1 channel speaker sys­tem.
Front left Center Front right
Subwoofer
Surround rightSurround left
Direct
In this mode, audio from the input source is output directly with minimal processing, providing high-fidel­ity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are output as they are.
Stereo
Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.
Mono
Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or use it with the foreign language soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other sources containing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke DVDs.
Dolby Digital Plus
Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest mul­tichannel audio format from Dolby. It supports up to 7.1 channels with 48kHz sampling rate.
DTS
The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to
5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for high­fidelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.
DTS 96/24
This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a 96kHz sampling rate and 24­bit resolution, providing superior fidelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.
DTS Neo:6
This mode expands any 2-channel source for 5.1-chan­nel playback. It uses seven full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience that fully envelops the listener.
Neo:6 Cinema
Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).
Neo:6 Music
Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II
expands any 2-channel source for
5.1-channel playback. It provides a very natural and seamless surround-sound experience that fully envelops the listener. As well as music and movies, video games can also benefit from the dramatic spatial effects and vivid imaging.
• Dolby PLII Movie
Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).
• Dolby PLII Music
Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).
• Dolby PLII Game
Use this mode with video games, especially those that bear the Dolby Pro Logic II logo.
Dolby Digital
Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most common digital surround-sound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for old movies and other mono sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono material.
Orchestra
Suitable for classical or operatic music, this mode emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the stereo image and simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.
Unplugged
Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the impression of being right in front of the stage.
Studio-Mix
Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acous­tic image, like being at a club or rock concert.
TV Logic
This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows pro­duced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire sound, and clarity to voices.
All Ch Stereo
Ideal for background music, this mode fills the entire lis­tening area with stereo sound from the front, and sur­round speakers.
Full Mono
In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you are within the listening room.
T-D (Theater-Dimensional) or
With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround sound even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds reach the listener’s left and right ears. Good results may not be possible if there’s too much reverb, so we recommend that you use this mode in an environment with little or no natural reverb.

Recording

This section explains how to record the input source and how to record audio and video from separate sources.
Notes:
• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.
• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to the analog multichannel input cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

Recording the Input Source

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cas­sette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 19 to 33 for hookup information.
1
Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to record.
See “Which Connections Should I Use?” on page 20 to see which signals can be output and recorded.

Recording from Different AV Sources

You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two sep­arate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same.
In the following example, audio from the CD player con­nected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder con­nected to the GAME/TV V jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

Using the Audio Settings

You can change various audio settings by pressing the [Audio] button.
1
Press the [Receiver] button fol­lowed by the [Audio] button.
Neo:6 Music
Center Image
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 5-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5. The default value is 2.
When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the sound is located centrally. This setting works well when the listening position is considerably off center. When set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenu­ated, maintaining the original stereo balance.
T–D (Theater-Dimensional) Setting
LstnAngl (Listening Angle)
With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimen­sional listening mode by specifying the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equi­distant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.

Using the 12V Triggers

The 12V triggers A, B, and C can be used to turn on 12V trigger-capable components automatically when they are selected as the input source. The triggers can be set so that they activate when a connected component is selected as the input source for the main room or Zone 2.
When triggered, the output from a 12V TRIGGER OUT goes high (+12 volts, 100 milliamperes max).

Hookup
• Use a miniplug cable to connect the AV receiver’s 12V TRIGGER OUT A, B, or C jack to the 12 V trigger input on a connected component.
When several components are turned on simultaneously by using triggers A, B, and C, depending on the type of components, a large amount of current may be drawn momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay trigger sig­nals A, B, and C individually. Another application for trigger delay is eliminating the “thump” noise that’s sometimes heard when a source component is turned on. Delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier so that it’s the last component to be turned on will accom­plish this.

Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2 and Multiroom Control Kits
To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you’re in Zone 2, you’ll need a commercially available multiroom remote control kit for each zone.
• Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech. These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line
of sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s installed inside a cabinet.
Using a Multiroom Kit with Zone 2
In this setup, the IR receiver in Zone 2 picks up the infra­red signals from the remote controller and feeds them through to the AV receiver in the main room via the con­necting block.

• Apart from the [Receiver], [TV], and [Zone 2] Remote Mode buttons, remote control codes from any cate­gory can be entered for the Remote Mode buttons. However, these but­tons also work as input selector but­tons (page 43), so choose a Remote Mode button that corresponds with the input to which you connect your component. For example, if you con­nect your CD player to the CD input, choose the [CD] Remote Mode but­ton when entering its remote control code.
Within 30 seconds, use the num­ber buttons to enter the 5-digit remote control code.
The Remote indicator flashes twice. If the remote control code is not entered
successfully, the Remote indicator will flash once slowly.

Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact the dealer.
If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting the dealer.
To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR] button, press the [On/Standby] button. “Clear” will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.
Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your radio presets and custom settings.
Power
Can’t turn on the AV receiver
• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall outlet properly.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it back in again.
The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned on
• The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immedi­ately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and leave the AV receiver with its power cord discon­nected for 1 hour. After that, reconnect the power cord and set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact the dealer.
Audio
There’s no sound or it’s very quiet
•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an HDMI input, make sure that input is assigned to an input selector (page 39).
•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL input, make sure that input is assigned to an input selector (page 40).
• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 19).
• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 16).
• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.
• Check the volume (page 43). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.
• If the MUTING indicator is flashing on the display, press the remote controller’s [Muting] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 44).
• While a pair of headphones is connected to the Phones jack, no sound is output by the main room speakers (page 45).
• Check the digital audio output settings on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the Audio button on your DVD player’s remote controller.
• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp built-in, you must connect one between it and the AV receiver.
• If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must con­nect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a phono preamp.
• Check the speaker settings (pages 35–38).
• If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS, set it to Auto (page 46).
• If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected to an HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output settings, and be sure to select a compatible audio format.
Only the front speakers produce sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
Only the center speaker produces sound
• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie or Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound will be concentrated in the center speaker.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The center speaker produces no sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 54).
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The surround speakers produce no sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound.
• Depending on the source and the current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the sur­round speakers. Try another listening mode (page 50).
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The subwoofer produces no sound
• If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The Zone 2 speakers produce no sound
• The Zone 2 speakers only output sources that are con­nected to an analog input. Check to see if the source component is connected to an analog input.
80

Troubleshooting
—Continued
There’s no sound with a certain signal format
• Check the digital audio output setting on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the Audio button on your DVD player’s remote controller.
The volume cannot be set to 79
• Check to see if a maximum volume has been set (page 62).
• When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 37), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.
Noise can be heard
• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio performance, so don’t use them.
• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.
The Late Night function doesn’t work
• Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital (page 59).
The analog multichannel input doesn’t work
• Check the multichannel input connections (page 23).
• Make sure that the multichannel input is selected (page 43).
• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.
About DTS signals
• When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a mal­function.
• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit­stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen­ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, as the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any­thing, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.
•With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is con­nected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recog­nize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.
The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can’t be heard
• Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio sig­nals, sound may not be output immediately.
Video
There’s no picture
• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 19).
• Make sure that each video component is properly con­nected.
• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.
• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so if a video source component is connected to a compo­nent video input, your TV must be connected to the component video output (page 20).
• If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT (page 20).
There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN
• Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported (page 28).
• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV receiver’s display, this indicates that your TV does not support the current video resolution and you need to select another resolution on your DVD player.
Tuner
Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t light up
• Relocate your antenna.
•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or com­puter.
• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.
•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.
• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.
• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.
Remote Controller
The remote controller doesn’t work
• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor­rect polarity (page 13).
• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver and there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 13).
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control­ler mode.
• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 71).
81

Troubleshooting
—Continued
Can’t control other components
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control­ler mode.
• If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or an RI Dock to the GAME/TV IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or DOCK, respectively (see page 41).
• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.
•With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.
•To control an Integra/Onkyo component that’s con­nected via , point the remote controller at the AV receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote con­trol code first (page 72).
•To control an Integra/Onkyo component that’s not connected via , or another manufacturer’s compo­nent, point the remote controller at that component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 71).
Recording
Can’t record
• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.
•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).
Others
The sound changes when I connect my head­phones
• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono, or Direct, in which case it stays the same.
How do I change the language of a multiplex source
• On the “Audio Adjust” menu, change the “Input (Mux)” setting to Main or Sub (page 57).
The functions don’t work
•To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the compo­nent and AV receiver, even if they are connected digi­tally (page 33).
• While Zone 2 is selected, the functions don’t work.
The following settings can be made for the S-Video and composite video inputs
You must use the buttons on the unit to make these set­tings.
1. While holding down the input selector button for the input source that you want to set, press the [Setup] button.
2. Use the Left and Right [ ]/[ ] buttons to change the setting.
3. Press the [Setup] button when you’ve finished.
Video Attenuation
This setting can be made for the DVD, VCR/DVR, CBL/SAT, or GAME/TV input. If you have a games console connected to the S-Video or composite video input, and the picture isn’t very clear, you can attenuate the gain.
Video ATT:0: Video ATT:2:
The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal pro­cessing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall out­let, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.
Integra/Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded cor­rectly.
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall out­let, set the AV receiver to Standby.
