Tuner Operation
All TUNER operations require the receiver source be set to TUNER. Press the FM or AM button to access
the tuner.
Manual Tuning - From the remote control or the front panel, tap the UP or DOWN arrow to tune one
frequency step at a time. Hold the up or down arrow to automatically seek up or down to the next available
strong station. Very strong stations may cause seeking to stop one step away from the station’s actual
frequency. Check one step above or below if you are not sure. Your favorite stations can be saved in presets
(see page 49).
Direct Frequency Entry Tuning - To directly recall a tuner frequency, press the FM or AM button, then enter
the frequency of the station within the next 3 seconds.
Example - Button press steps for directly entering the radio station for 103.3 FM = FM - 1 - 0 - 3 - 3
Headphone Operation
Headphone mode allows output of the source selection using a set of headphones. The headphone jack
uses a 1/4” (6.3mm) stereo jack. From the remote control select STEREO - 0. SURROUND - 0 is identical
to STEREO-0. To select headphone mode from the front panel, select a source, press the MODE button.
Press the UP or DOWN arrows to step through until the receiver switches into headphone mode. When in
headphone mode, CONTROL OUT #1 is set to off (default). This feature allows your receiver to turn off
external amplifiers or powered subwoofers with compatible 12VDC CONTROL inputs. The receiver will mute
the surround output channels when in headphone mode. Headphone mode can also be set up to be recalled
using a preset. (See speaker selection page 47).
While in 'HEADPHONE', equalization features of the receiver remain operational. The unit will stay in
headphone mode until a different speaker selection is made. This feature allows the 'Headphone' selection to
stay in effect until the unit is put into STANDBY.
WARNING: In order to provide full range audio to your headphones, it is necessary to override the
bass management processing in your receiver. If you are using external amplifiers or powered
speakers with no CONTROL OUT capability then full range audio will be sent to your front left and
right speakers. If you have small front speakers we strongly suggest you manually turn off your
external amplifiers or powered speakers before selecting 'HEADPHONE' operation. Otherwise speaker
damage may occur.
