Error Messages
While the automatic speaker setup is in progress, one of

Changing the Speaker Settings Manually
In some situations, the measurements taken by the auto-
matic speaker setup may not provide usable results. If
running the speaker setup a second time still doesn’t pro-
vide usable results, you’ll have to set the speaker settings
manually (see pages 56–60).
Using a Powered Subwoofer
If you’re using a powered subwoofer, because it outputs
very low-frequency sound and its position is usually low
down, it may not be detected by the automatic speaker
setup. In this case, increase the subwoofer’s volume, set
it to its highest crossover frequency, and then try running
the automatic speaker setup again. Note that if the vol-
ume is set too high and the sound distorts, it may not be
detected, so use an appropriate volume level. If the sub-
woofer has a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct.
Refer to your subwoofer’s instruction manual for details.
To Retry the Automatic Speaker Setup

Make sure speakers that cannot be
detected are connected properly.
