Smooth Operation in a Few Easy Steps
To ensure smooth operation, here’s a few easy steps to help you configure the AV receiver before you use it for the
very first time. These settings only need to be made once.
■ Do the automatic speaker setup—this is essential!
See “Automatic Speaker Setup (Audyssey2EQ)” on page 38.
■ Have you connected a component to an HDMI input,
component video input, or digital audio input?
If you have, see “HDMI Video Setup” on page 45, “Component
Video Setup” on page 46, or “Digital Input” on page 44 respectively.
■ Have you connected an Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder,
or next generation HDD-compatible component?
If you have, see “Changing the Input Display” on page 47.
