by a phone call, press the MUTE button on the front panel or H button
on the remote.
This will interrupt the output to all speakers and the head-phone jack,
but it will not affect any recording or dubbing that may be in progress.
When the system is muted, the display will show “MUTE” .
Press the MUTE button again to return to normal operation.

tap the Sleep on the remote.
Each press of the button will increase the time before shut down in the
following sequence.
The sleep time will be shown for a few seconds in the display on the
front panel, and it will count down until the time has elapsed.
When the programmed sleep time has elapsed, the unit will
automatically turn off.
Note that the SLEEP indicator on the display will light up when the
Sleep function is programmed.

shows to “SLEEP OFF” and the SLEEP indicator disappear.
NIGHT MODE

DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital.
When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital,
sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display
which will read "Dial Norm X dB" (X being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material
has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example,
if you see the following message: "Dial Norm + 4 dB" in the front panel
display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the
volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you
are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual.
If you do not see a message in the front panel display, then no
adjustment of the volume control is necessary.
