RGB 1: (Only when connected to a RGB compatible TV)

If you always would like to view the picture from the unit 
in RGB signal, select this mode. The TV screen will 
automatically switch to display the picture from the unit 
when the unit is turned on.

[RGB\2]

: (Only when connected to a RGB compatible TV)

When in TV tuner mode, if the selector is set to “DVD/

the picture from the unit only during disc playback 
(

DVD/CD.

The TV picture will be displayed when the selector is set 

to “AV”. With other selectors, the picture from this unit will 

be displayed.

bitstream (digital form of 5.1-channel data). Otherwise, 

select “PCM”.

decoder, high levels of noise can be output and may 

damage your speakers and hearing.)

the connected equipment does not support the item 

selected, the actual output will depend on the 

performance of this connected equipment.
