Basic Operations—Continued
With the sleep timer, you can set the AV receiver to turn
off automatically after a specified period.
If you need to cancel the sleep timer, press the [SLEEP]
button repeatedly until the SLEEP indicator disappears.
To check the time remaining until the AV receiver sleeps,
press the [
SLEEP
] button. Note that if you press the
[
SLEEP
] button while the sleep time is being displayed,
you’ll shorten the sleep time by 10 minutes.
For private listening, you can connect a pair of stereo
headphones (1/4-inch phone plug) to the AV receiver’s
PHONES jack.
Notes:
• Always turn down the volume before connecting your
headphones.
• While the headphones plug is inserted in the PHONES
jack, the speakers are turned off and the Headphone
indicator lights up. (The Powered Zone 2 speakers are
not turned off.)
• When you connect a pair of headphones, the listening
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo,
Mono, Direct, or Pure Audio.
• Only the Stereo, Direct, Pure Audio, and Mono listen-
ing modes can be used with headphones (the listening
modes available also depend on the currently selected
input source).
• When the multichannel input is used, only the front
left and right audio can be heard in the headphones.
You can adjust the bass and treble for the front speakers,
except when the Direct, Pure Audio or THX listening
mode is selected.
■ Bass
You can boost or cut low-frequency sounds output by the
front speakers from –10 dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps.
■ Treble
You can boost or cut high-frequency sounds output by
the front speakers from –10 dB to +10dB in 1dB steps.
Notes:
• This setting is not available when the multichannel
Analog input is selected.
• The tone can be adjusted for Speakers A or Speakers
B. The same values are used for both.
• The tone control settings do not apply to the Direct,
Pure Audio, or THX listening modes.
You can display various information about the current
input source as follows.
The following information can typically be displayed:
* If the input signal is analog, no format information is displayed.
If the input signal is PCM, the sampling frequency is displayed.
If the input signal is digital but not PCM, the signal format and
the number of channels is displayed. For some digital input sig-
nals, including multichannel PCM, the signal format, number of
channels, and sampling frequency is displayed.
Information is displayed for about three seconds, then the previ-
ously displayed information reappears.
