Here are the basic instructions for playing a source (such as a Blu-ray Disc) with your home theater system.

Switch on your system components and receiver.
Start by switching on the playback component (for example a Blu-ray Disc player), your TV and subwoofer (if you have
one), then the receiver (press STANDBY/ON).

selected.

Press AUTO/DIRECT to select ’AUTO SURR’ and start playback of the source.
If you’re playing a Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound Blu-ray/DVD disc, with a digital audio connection, you should
hear surround sound. If you’re playing a stereo source or if the connection is an analog audio connection, you will only
hear sound from the front left/right speakers in the default listening mode.
