Reducing the level of an analog signal
The input attenuator lowers the input level of an analog
signal when it’s too strong. You can use this if you find
the that the
OVER indicator is lights often, or you can
hear distortion in the sound.
1
• Press RECEIVER then press ANALOG ATT to switch
the input attenuator on or off.
Using the sleep timer
The sleep timer switches the receiver into standby after a
specified amount of time so you can fall asleep without
worrying about the receiver being left on all night. Use
the remote control to set the sleep timer.
• Press RECEIVER then press SLEEP repeatedly to set
the sleep time.
• You can check the remaining sleep time at any time
by pressing SLEEP once. Pressing repeatedly will
cycle through the sleep options again. 2
Dimming the display
You can choose between four brightness levels for the
front panel display. Note that when selecting sources,
the display automatically brightens for a few seconds.
• Press RECEIVER then press DIMMER repeatedly to
change the brightness of the front panel display.
Switching the speaker impedance
We recommend using speakers of 8 Ω with this system,
but it is possible to switch the impedance setting if you
plan to use speakers with a 6
Ω impedance rating. Use
the front panel controls to do this.
• With the receiver in standby, press STANDBY/
ON while holding down the SPEAKERS button.
Each time you do this, you switch between the
impedance settings:
• SP 6 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 6 Ω .
• SP 8 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 8 Ω or more.
Checking your system settings
Use the status display to check your current settings for
features such as surround back channel processing and
your current MCACC preset.
1 Press STATUS to check the system settings.
These appear on the front panel display. 3
The front panel display shows each of the following
settings for three seconds each:
2 When you’re finished, press STATUS again to
switch off the display.
Note
1 The attenuator isn’t available with digital sources, or when using the Stream Direct modes.
2 You can also switch off the sleep timer simply by switching off the receiver.
