Precautions

1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.

2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not userserviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact the dealer from whom you purchased this unit.

3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage the ﬁnish or remove the panel lettering.

4. Power WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.

Setting the [Standby/On] switch to Standby does not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the unit for an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.

5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never handle this unit or its power cord while your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets inside this unit, have it checked by the dealer from whom you purchased this unit.

6. Handling Notes

• If you need to transport this unit, use the original

packaging to pack it how it was when you originally bought it.

• Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit

for a long time, because they may leave marks on the case.

• This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm

after prolonged use. This is normal.

• If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may

not work properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure to use it occasionally.

Memory Backup

The AV receiver uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the AV receiver must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system. Once it has been charged, the AV receiver will retain the settings for several weeks, although this depends on the environment and will be shorter in humid climates.

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 DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog and digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx and Onkyo’s own DSP surround listening modes. You can also enjoy THX Surround EX (THX-certiﬁed THX speaker system recommended).

Front left and right speakers

These output the overall 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 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.

Surround back left and right speakers

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, THX Surround EX, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.

THX recommends that they be placed as close as possible in order to make advantage of their proprietary ASA (Advanced Speaker Array) technology. If this condition is not possible, adjust the SurrBack Sp Spacing setting via the THX Audio Setup. (See page 70.)

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.

*If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the left (L) SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass.

To get the best from your surround-sound system, you need to set the speaker settings by using the supplied setup microphone (see page 38).

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and right and surround back left and right speakers. 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 the TV/screen, while the surround back left and right dipolar speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, be sure to set the minimum speaker impedance to 4 ohms (see page 44). 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. In other words, 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

mm) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

Unscrew the terminal.

Fully insert the bare

wires.

Screw the terminal tight.

The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals.

If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the left (L) SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals.

(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so they can be connected either way around).

Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

Push Insert wire Release

■ Other Models

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Use thumbtacks or something similar to

ﬁx the FM antenna into position.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 21).

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 21).

Connecting Antenna—Continued

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

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.

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI

Designed to meet the 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, and 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 can display the picture.

The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard: High-Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface Speciﬁcation Informational Version 1.1

Supported Audio Formats

• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (5.1 ch, 32–96 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, DTS)

Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),*2 a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

Commercially available HDMI cables (supplied with some components) should be used 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*3 in 1999. *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.

*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open

industry group’s objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity speciﬁcation for high-performance PCs and digital displays.

Step 1: Make sure that each Integra/Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable

(RCA).

Step 2: Make the connection. Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or HDD component, change the Input Display (see page 44).

With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

Auto Power On/Standby

When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components connected via will also go on Standby. This function will not work with components connected to an AC OUTLET on the AV receiver.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to press the [Multi CH] button to hear all channels (page 53), as the Direct Change function only selects the FRONT jacks.

Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other -capable Integra/Onkyo components, pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (see page 85).

Notes:

• Use only cables for connections. cables are supplied with Integra/Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).

• Some components have two jacks. You can connect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for connecting additional -capable components.

• Connect only Integra/Onkyo components to jacks. Connecting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

• Some components may not support all functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Integra/Onkyo components.

Connecting the Power Cord

Notes:

• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components.

•Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.

• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV receiver. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use with the AV receiver and should not be used with any other equipment.

Warning Messages

In the warning messages, abbreviations are used to identify the speakers (e.g., “L” for left, “R” for right, and so on).

Not Detect:

The speaker was not detected. Make sure that it’s connected properly.

Distance Error:

The speaker is either too close or too far away, or the distance could not be measured. Reposition the speaker.

Changing the Speaker Settings Manually:

In some situations, the measurements taken by the automatic speaker setup may not provide usable results. If running the speaker setup a second time still doesn’t provide usable results, you’ll have to set the speaker settings yourself (see pages 66–71).

Please note that any THX main speakers should be set to 80 Hz (THX). If you set up your speakers using Automatic Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to 80 Hz (THX) in the Speaker Conﬁguration setting (see pages 66, 67).

Sometimes due to the electrical complexities of subwoofers and the interaction with the room, THX recommends setting the level and the distance of the subwoofer manually.

Using a Powered Subwoofer:

If you’re using a powered subwoofer, because it’s positioned low down on the ﬂoor and outputting very low frequency sounds, its output may not be detected properly. If the subwoofer (abbreviation “SW”) appears on the Warning screen under Not Detect, turn up the subwoofer’s volume and run the automatic speaker setup again. If the subwoofer has a built-in crossover, set it to the highest crossover frequency. If it has an LPF ﬁlter

switch, set it to off or direct. Refer to your subwoofer’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.

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.

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 Pro Logic IIx

This mode expands any 2-channel source for 7.1-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.

If you’re not using any surround back speakers, Dolby Pro Logic II will be used instead of Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

• PLIIx Movie

Use this mode with any stereo or TV, DVD, VHS.

• PLIIx Music

Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

• PLIIx 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 surroundsound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

Dolby Digital EX, DTS+Dolby EX

These modes expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. They’re especially suited to Dolby Digital EX soundtracks that include a matrix-encoded surround back channel. The additional channel adds an extra dimension and provides an enveloping surround sound experience, perfect for rotating and ﬂy-by sound effects. Use them with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital or DTS logo.

Dolby Digital+PLIIx Music, DTS+PLIIx Music

These modes use the Pro Logic IIx Music mode to expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 6.1/7.1-channel play-

back. Use them with Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 music sources (e.g., DVD and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts).

Dolby Digital+PLIIx Movie, DTS+PLIIx Movie

These modes use the Pro Logic IIx Movie mode to expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 7.1-channel playback. Use them with Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 movies (e.g., DVD and select digital TV broadcasts).

DTS

The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to 5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for high-ﬁdelity 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 96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit resolution, providing superior ﬁdelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS-ES Discrete

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks that use a discrete surroundback channel for true 6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360-degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.

DTS-ES Matrix

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks that use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo.

DTS NEO:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for 6.1-channel playback. It uses six 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).

DTS+Neo:6

This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel DTS sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS logo and feature a

5.1-channel soundtrack.

Using the Listening Modes—Continued

THX

Founded by George Lucas, THX develops stringent standards that ensure movies are reproduced in movie theaters and home theaters just as the director intended.

• THX Cinema

This mode is for watching movies, which are typically recorded and edited on the assumption that they will be played in a sizable place like a movie theater. It carefully optimizes the tonal and spatial characteristics of the soundtrack for reproduction in the smaller home-theater environment. It can be used with 2-channel sources processed with other formats, and multichannel sources. Surround back speaker output depends on the source material and the selected listening mode.

• THX Select2 Cinema

This mode expands Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1channel sources for 7.1-channel playback. It does this by analyzing the composition of the surround source, optimizing the ambient and directional sounds to produce the surround back channel output. This is a new and improved mode especially for home theater use.

• THX Music Mode

This mode is designed for use with music. It expands Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel sources for 7.1channel playback.

• THX Games Mode

This mode is designed for use with video games.

• THX Surround EX

This mode expands Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. It’s especially suited to Dolby Digital EX sources. THX Surround EX, also known as Dolby Digital Surround EX, is a joint development between Dolby Laboratories and THX Ltd.

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, surround, and surround back 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.

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 multichannel DVD input cannot be recorded.

•Various restrictions apply to digital recording. Refer to the manuals supplied with your digital recording equipment for more details.

• Digital input signals are output by only the digital outputs, and analog input signals are output by only the analog outputs. There is no internal conversion from digital to analog or vice versa.

• 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 or DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT jacks. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVD recorder) connected to the to VIDEO 1 OUT or VIDEO 2 OUT jacks. See pages 22 to 36 for hookup information.

Recording Audio and Video from Separate 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 Video 4 Input Video jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

Off: Panorama function off (default).

■ Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound ﬁeld forward or backward when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. The default value is 3. Higher settings move the sound ﬁeld forward. Lower settings move it backward. It can be adjusted from 0 to 6.

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much surround sound, move the sound ﬁeld forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround sound, move it backward.

■ Center Width

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center). This setting adjusts the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7 (default value is 3).

Use the Tone [–]/[+] buttons to adjust.

Neo:6 Music

■ Center Image

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-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 (default value is 3). This setting is unavailable if no surround speakers are connected.

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.

■ Delay

When several components are turned on simultaneously via the 12-volt triggers, depending on the type of components, a large amount of current may be drawn momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay the trigger signals output by the AV receiver. In addition, by delaying the trigger signal for your power ampliﬁer so that it’s the last component to be turned on, you can avoid the “thump” noise that’s sometimes heard when a source component is turned on.

The delay setting determines how long after the input source is changed on the AV receiver the trigger signal is output. It can be set to 0 sec, 1 sec, 2 sec, or 3 sec. When set to 0 sec, the trigger signal is output as soon as the input source is changed.

■ 12V Trigger Setting for Each Input Source

By default, all input sources on the 12V Trigger A Setup menu are set to Main, those on the 12V Trigger B Setup menu are set to Main/Zone 2, and those on the 12V Trigger C Setup menu are set to Zone2.

Learning Commands from Other Remote Controllers

The AV receiver’s remote controller can receive and learn commands from other remote controllers. By transmitting, for example, the Play command from your CD player’s remote controller, the remote controller can learn it and then transmit the exact same command when its Play [ ] button is pressed in the CD remote mode.

You can also use this function to learn individual commands after entering a remote control code (page 84).

Remote indicator

1, 4

While holding down the Remote Mode button for the mode in which you want to use the command, press the [On] button.

The Remote indicator lights up.

Point the remote controllers at each other, about 2 to 6 inches (5–15 cm) apart, and then press and hold the button whose command you want to learn until the Remote indicator ﬂashes.

If the command is learned successfully, the Remote indicator ﬂashes twice.

About 2 to 6 inches (5–15 cm)

Press any Remote Mode button when you’ve ﬁnished.

Notes:

• The following buttons cannot learn new commands: Remote Mode, Macro [1], [2], [3], TV [ ], TV [Input], TV CH [+]/[–], TV VOL [ ]/[ ], Light.

• The remote controller can learn approximately 70-90 commands, although, this will be reduced by commands that use a lot of memory.

• Remote controller buttons such as Play, Stop, Pause, and so on are preprogrammed with commands for controlling Integra/Onkyo CD players, cassette decks, and DVD players. However, they can learn new commands, and you can restore the preprogrammed commands by resetting the remote controller (see page 85).

•To overwrite a previously learned command, repeat this procedure.

• Only commands from infrared remote controllers can be learned.

• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all learned commands will be lost and will have to be learned all over again, so don’t discard your other remote controllers.

On this AV receiver’s remote controller, press the button you want to learn the new command.

• When the ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals are used, playback in the main room is reduced to 5.1-channels.

The volume cannot be set to +18 dB (99)

• After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been used, or the volume level of each speaker has been adjusted (pages 54, 69), the maximum possible volume setting be reduced.

Noise can be heard

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do it.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

• Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital (page 64).

The multichannel DVD input doesn’t work

• Check the multichannel DVD input connections (page 26).

•To select the multichannel DVD input, press the [Multi CH] input selector button.

• 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, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, 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, audio output may not start immediately.

Video

There’s no picture

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 22).

• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.

• If a video component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT or HDMI OUT (page 23).

• If a video component is connected to an HDMI input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT.

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

•To watch a composite video or S-Video source on a TV that’s connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, select “- - -” in the “Component Video Setup” on page 42.

•To watch a composite video, S-Video, or component video source on a TV that’s connected to the HDMI OUT, select “- - -” in the “HDMI Video Setup” on page 41.

There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN

• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV receiver’s display, this indicates that the TV or display does not support the current video resolution and you need to select another resolution on your DVD player.

The onscreen menus don’t appear

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

The picture is distorted

• On non-North American models, specify the TV system used in your area in the “TV Format Setup” on page 45.

The immediate display does not appear

• The immediate display (operation details) may not appear on a TV that’s connected to the HDMI OUT or COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.

Troubleshooting—Continued

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t appear

• Relocate your antenna.

•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.

• Listen to the station in mono (page 47).

• 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.

Can’t select XM radio channels (North American model only)

• Channels cannot be selected while the indicator is ﬂashing, as tuning is in progress.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 7).

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 7).

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode (page 12).

• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 84).

Can’t control other components

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode (page 12).

• If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or next generation HDD-compatible component to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or an Onkyo Remote Interactive Dock to the VIDEO 3 IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the input display to MD, CDR, or HDD (see page 44).

• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.

• If none of the codes work, use the Learning function to learn the commands of the other component’s remote controller (page 87).

•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 85).

•To control an Integra/Onkyo component that’s not connected via , or another manufacturer’s component,

point the remote controller at the component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (page 84).

Can’t learn commands from another remote controller

• When learning commands, make sure that the transmitting ends of both remote controllers are pointing at each other.

• Are you trying to learn from a remote controller that cannot be used for learning? Some commands cannot be learned, especially those that contain several instructions.

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, VIDEO 1 IN to VIDEO 1 OUT, or VIDEO 2 IN to VIDEO 2 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

• Use the “Multiplex” setting on the “Audio Adjust” menus to select “Main” or “Sub” (page 64).

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 36).

• While Zone 2 is on, the functions do not work.

Troubleshooting—Continued

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 ﬁve seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [Video 1] button, press the [Standby/On] button. “Clear” will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.

Set the AV receiver to Standby before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet.
