show that MCACC setup is complete.

• If the room environment is not optimal for

the auto surround setup (too much
ambient noise, echo off the walls, obsta-
cles blocking the speakers from the
microphone) the final settings may be
incorrect. Check for household appli-
ances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.),
that may be affecting the environment
and switch them off if necessary.

• Some older TVs may interfere with the

operation of the mic. If this seems to be
happening, switch off the TV when doing
the auto surround setup.

• Using the MCACC system to set up your

speaker system overwrites any previous
settings you had for the

STANDARD

or

ADVANCED SURROUND

modes.

• When the

STANDARD

or

ADVANCED

SURROUND

mode is selected, you can

check the settings made with MCACC by
using

CH SELECT

(to check channel

levels) or by going through the steps in

Choosing your receiver setup

on page 42

to check other settings.

• Depending on the characteristics of your

room, sometimes identical speakers with
cone sizes of around 5 inches (12cm) will
end up with different size settings. You
can correct the setting manually using
the receiver setup on page 42.
