cloth. Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol, etc. for these agents may
cause discoloration.

In regard to contact cleaner

Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be
specially careful not to use contact cleaners containing oil, for they
may deform the plastic component.

Dolby Digital

The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from
software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides up
to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and
more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.

Dolby PRO LOGIC

II

DOLBY PRO LOGIC

II

, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor

PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows
user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a convinc-
ing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC

II

offers special features for

controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound field
imaging. PRO LOGIC

II

produces an impressive surround sound from

video software marked

and three-dimensional space

from music CD. When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the
experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.

DTS

DTS (Digital Theater System) is a 5.1 channel digital audio format that
provides five full-spectrum channels and one low-frequency (subwoofer)
channel for unprecedented clarity, optimum channel separation and a
(wide) dynamic range.
In the DTS mode, the 5.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD, LD or DVD
disc (carrying the “DTS” marking) can be played in Digital Surround.
Important:
When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be
output from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the
digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.

DSP surround modes

The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates a
variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like “ARENA”, “JAZZ
CLUB”, THEATER”, STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible with
almost any kind of program source.

DVD 6-channel input (For VR-615/KRF-V5060D only)

If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver
allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source
material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience
is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround sound
systems.

CINEMA EQ

Cinema EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any
conditions. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when you
switch CINEMA EQ ON during Dolby Digital and DTS playback.

Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control

In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this
receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio and
video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to register
the components you have connected.

RDS (Radio Data System) tuner (For the U.K. and
Europe only)

The receiver is equipped with an RDS tuner that provides several
convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory, to automatically preset
up to 40 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name
display, to show you the name of the current broadcast station; and PTY
search to let you tune stations by program type.

PTY (Program TYpe) search (For the U.K. and Europe
only)

Tune the stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.
