Before you start 01 6 En Chapter 1 Before you start Features • Easy setup using Advanced Multichannel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) Setting up for home theater sound is as easy as connecting your speakers, a DVD player or other source, and your TV.
Before you start 01 7 En Ventilation When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around the unit for ventilation to improve heat dispersal (at least 8 in. (20 cm) at the top). If not enough space is provided between the unit and walls or other equipment, heat will build up inside, interfering with performance and/or causing malfunctions.
Before you start 01 8 En Remote control battery indicator When the batteries get too weak to operate the remote control properly an indicator warning screen will appear on the remote. Change the batteries as shown above. This must be done within five minutes or all your remote control settings will be cleared.

For proper sound you should take care to match these up with the terminals on the speakers themselves. • If you only have one surround back speaker, hook it up to the surround back left ( Single ) terminal.
5 minute guide 02 12 En Automatically setting up for surround sound The Auto Surround Setup measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening area, taking into account ambient noise, speaker size and distance, and tests for both channel delay and channel level.
5 minute guide 02 13 En 6 Make sure ‘Normal System’ is selected, then select ‘Exit’. • If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read through Surround back speaker setting on page 51 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before continuing to step 7.
5 minute guide 02 14 En You can also choose to view all the settings by selecting Next . Press ENTER after you have finished checking each screen. When you’re finished, select Exit to go back to the Surround Setup menu.
