the AV receiver’s [MULTI CH] button. The MULTI CH indicator will appear on the

as they are.

Start playback on the source component.
To watch a DVD or other video source, on your TV, select the video input that’s con-
nected to the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, HDMI OUT, or MONITOR

On some DVD players, you may need to change the digital or HDMI audio output
settings.

To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control or the remote
controller’s [VOL] button.
Since the AV receiver is designed for home theaters, it has a wide volume range for
precise adjustment. The volume can be set to Min, 1 through 79, or Max.
For the Customer Using the HT-S5105 Home Theater System or the Powered Sub-
woofer.
Note
: When the subwoofer volume level is set to a positive (+) value, the maximum
master volume level is reduced proportionally.
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set
the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what
you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.
