Common Functions
This chapter explains functions that can be used with any input source.
You can connect a pair of stereo headphones (1/4-inch
phone plug) to the AV receiver’s PHONES jack for pri-
vate listening, as shown.
Notes:
•Always turn down the volume before connecting your
headphones.
• Speaker sets A and B are turned off while the head-
phones plug is inserted in the PHONES jack.
• When you connect a pair of headphones, the listening
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Mono,
Stereo, or Direct.
• When the multichannel DVD input is selected, only
the front left and front right channels can be heard in
the headphones.
With this function, you can adjust the brightness of the
display.
You can adjust the bass or treble for speaker set A’s front
speakers, except when the Direct listening mode is
selected.
