Auto speaker setup using the setup microphone
• Using the supplied setup microphone, you can measure such items as distance from the seating area and polarity and make
adjustment for connected speakers.
• For ELS Surround playback, perform the auto speaker setup and light up the “AUTO SPEAKER SETUP” indicator.
• The unit considers seven speakers and one subwoofer are connected to the unit (keeps factory settings) unless you
perform these steps.
Keep quiet during the auto speaker setup. Conversational voice, air-conditioning noise and faint sounds made by wind may cause an error or
produce an incorrect setting. Speakers output loud test signals during the auto speaker setup. Make sure to keep little children out of the room.
• Mute the TV volume before starting the auto speaker setup.
• Make sure that the subwoofer is turned “ON”.
Set the subwoofer volume to the normal listening level.
• The volume may reach an extremely high level when you repeat the auto speaker setup.
When the auto speaker setup is finished, check the volume before starting playback.
• These settings remain effective after the unit goes off.
• The setup microphone jack is for use with the setup microphone only. Do not connect other microphones.
• The setup microphone is sensitive to heat. Keep it away from direct sunlight and avoid placing it on top of the unit.
