ITEM

 (4, 5). The setting is done using the buttons 

VALUE

 (7, 8).

Depending on the actual source the menu system offers the following settings:

4.1 Repeat (CD must be selected as source)

Choose repeat mode: "one" (actual title), "all" (whole CD or programmed sequence), "off".

4.2 RDS-Display (tuner must be selected as source)

Choose if station NAME, RDS-TEXT or FREQUENCY is displayed.

4.3 Scanmode (tuner must be selected as source)

Set tuning mode between "auto" or "manual". (See also 3.5.1 tuning)

4.4 2-CH-Mode (tuner must be selected as source)

Set tuner to mono or stereo to obtain best sound.

NOTE:

 Depending on actual setting the threshold for auto tuning will change (sensitive in MONO, less

sensitive in STEREO).

4.5 Bandwidth (tuner must be selected as source)

Select bandwidth "narrow" / "wide" for best reception.

4.6 Sensitivity (tuner must be selected as source)

Choose between "local" (in case the tuner operates from a cable) and "distant" (if operated from antenna)

4.7 Tone control (see also 10.1.6)

Set tone control to "bypass" (= linear) or "active". In case the tone control is activated "TONE ON" is shown
in the display (4), otherwise "LINEAR".

You can choose if you want to change bass and treble settings simultaneously for all inputs ("global") or
especially for the actual input ("individual"). See 10.1.6

The loudness function depends on speakers and properties of the listening room and is therefore always
"global".

NOTE:

 In case tone control is set to "bypass" the menu will skip the bass, treble, and loudness settings (4.8 -

4.10).

Set tone control to "bypass" (= linear) or "active". In case the tone control is activated a "TONE ON" is shown
in the display (3).

4.8 Bass

Set bass level between – 5 and + 9.

4.9 Treble

Set treble level between – 7 and + 7.
