Midnight mode
(DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS mode only)
When watching movies at night , you might not be able to raise the volume
as loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic range of
previously specified parts of the DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS sound track (like
scenes with sudden increases in volume) to minimize the difference in
volume between the specified and non-specified parts. This makes it easy
to hear all of the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.
1 Press the RCV MODE key on the remote control unit to
set it to the receiver control mode.
2 Press the SOUND key.
3 Use the MULTI CONTROL @ / # (or the @ / # keys) to
select "MIDNIGHT" on setup displays, and press the
ENTER.
÷ This can be selected only if DVD, VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, AUX
or GAME is selected as the source and the listen mode is set
to "DOLBY DIGITAL" or "DTS".
4 Use the MULTI CONTROL % / fi (or the % / fi keys) to
select the "MIDNIGHT2", "MIDNIGHT1" or "OFF" setting.
1 "MIDNIGHT2": Large effect
Suitable for late-night use.
2 "MIDNIGHT1": Medium effect
3 "OFF"
÷ The adjustment item is displayed for approximately 20 sec-
onds.
÷ Some DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS software may not be compat-
ible with the Midnight mode.
5 Press the SOUND key again to return to the input indication.
Display dimmer adjustment
The dimmer function lets you select the brightness of the receiver's
display. You might find this useful if you darken your room to watch
movies or listen to music.
Each time you press the DIMMER key, the display’s brightness
changes among the three available settings.
Select the brightness level you find most pleasing.
1 Bright
2 Dark
3 Dark (LEDs on the receiver are also OFF.)
Sleep timer
The sleep timer function turns the receiver OFF (to the standby mode)
automatically when the set timer period has elapsed. The sleep timer
period can be set in 10-minute steps up to 90 minutes.
Press the SLEEP key repeatedly until the desired period before
turning the receiver OFF (standby mode) is displayed.
÷ Each press increments the sleep timer period by 10 minutes.
10 = 20 = 30 .....70 = 80 = 90 = Cancel = 10 = 20 = ...
÷ Pressing the SLEEP key after the sleep timer has started
allows you to check the remaining time period.
÷ To cancel the sleep timer, turn the receiver OFF (standby
mode) or press the SLEEP key repeatedly until the Sleep
timer indicator disappears.
The sleep timer indicator lights up
