Each time you press ANALOG/DIGITAL on the remote control, the input mode changes as follows: DIGITAL AUTO =DOLBY DIGITAL= DTS SURROUND = ANALOG =(back to the beginning) When DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS SURROUND is selected, the DIGITAL AUTO indicator goes off, and the corresponding digital signal format indicator lights up on the display. - If the incoming signal does not match the selected digital signal format, the indicator of the selected signal format will flash. Note: When you turn off the power or select another source, DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS SURROUND settings are canceled and the digitalinput mode is automatically reset to DIGITAL AUTO. To select the analog input mode Press INPUT ANALOG (or ANALOG/DIGITAL on the remote control repeatedly until ANALOG appears on the display). The ANALOG indicator lights up. Changing the Display Brightness You can dim the display. Press DIMMER. - Each time you press the button, the display dims and brightens alternately. Attenuating the Input Signal When the input level of the analog source is too high, the sounds will be distorted. If this happens, you need to attenuate the input signal level to prevent the sound distortion. - Once you have made adjustment, it is memorized for each analog source. Press and hold INPUT ATT (INPUT ANALOG) so that the INPUT ATT indicator lights up on the display. - Each time you press and hold the button, the input attenuator mode turns on (INPUT ATT ON) and off (INPUT NORMAL). Changing the Source Name When you have connected a CD recorder to the TAPE/CDR jacks on the rear panel, change the source name which will be shown on the display.
