Basic Playback
Playing a Source
Here are the basic instructions for playing a disc or videotape (or any other source) with your home theater system.
The following pages will tell you about refinements you can make to the sound but the below procedure (with the
settings you have already made) should allow you to get enjoyable home theater.
1 Turn on the power of the playback compo-
nent (for example a DVD player), your TV
and subwoofer (if you have one).
2 Press RECEIVER to turn the power on.
The STANDBY indicator goes out. (If its the first time
for you to turn on the receiver youll have to turn the
main power on by pressing the ON/OFF button. If
the STANDBY indicator lights when you do this, press
the RECEIVER button as above.)
3 Select the source (like a DVD player) you
want to playback using the individual INPUT
buttons on the remote control .
If the Direct Selection (see page 43) is off you have to
use the INPUT SELECT button which cycles through
the different inputs. Or, you can use the INPUT
buttons on the front panel.
4 Make sure the TV is set to this receiver.
If youre not sure which input on your TV this
receiver is hooked up to confirm the input jack on the
back of the TV and consult the manual that came
with your TV to figure out the proper setting.
5 Start playback of the component you selected
in step 3.
6 Press MASTER VOLUME (+/–) to adjust the
volume level.
