SURROUNID MODE display
SURROUND MODE:
Displays the surround mode selected with the
SURROUND MODE buttons.
DELAY TIME:
Displays the delay time from
10
mS to
30
mS, set
with the DELAY TIME control.
0
REAR LEVEL volume control
This control raises or lowers the volume level of the
rear speakers. Press the UP side of the control to
raise the volume level and press the DOWN side to
lower it.
0
DELAY TIME co�ntrol
This control is used to vary the audio sound delay
time, from
10
mS to
30
mS, to the rear speaker pair.
(!)
SURROUND ON/OFF switch
Set this switch to ON to enable the surround mode
features. The SURROUND MODE display appears.
When surround mode is not desired, set this switch to
OFF. The SURROUND MODE display disappears.
.. Audio MUTING indicator
This indicator lights when Muting is engaged (from the
remote control unit). By pressing the MUTING
(-20
dB)
key of the remote control transmitter, the sound level
will be muted by
20
dB.
.. VOLUME control and indicator
This control is used to raise or lower the output
volume level.
�
REMOTE CONTROL sensor
This is used to receive signals from the remote control
transmitter.

CD DIRECT SWITCH (CD DIRECT)
This switch allows you to route the CD input signal
directly to the output stage bypassing the Input
selector, Surround sound processor, Loudness, and
Balance controls therefore avoiding any "muddying"
caused by the switch and circuit routing to provide a
pure sound.
41)
REC OUT selector
Used to select the program source to be recorded.
4li)
Continuous variable LOUDNESS control
This control allows you to retain full tonal range at any
volume levels. Your ear loses sensitivity to high and
low frequency ranges at low volume settings. This
control provides an equalization curve based on
human hearing.
To adjust the LOUDNESS control to your listening
level, first, set the control to the FLAT position,
increase the VOLUME control to your loudest listening
level, then turn the LOUDNESS control
counterclockwise to reduce the volume level.
4i
BALANCE control
Use this control to concurrently change the left and
right output volume to the speaker terminals to
compensate for sound imbalance caused from speaker
settings or listening room condition.

Tone controls
BASS
control:
This control is used to increase or decrease the low
frequency response. The
"0"
center click position
produces a flat response. Rotating the control in the
+
direction increases the low frequency response.
Conversely, rotating the control in the - direction
decreases it.
MID
control:
This control is used to increase or decrease the mid
range frequency response. The
"0"
center click position
produces a flat response. Rotating the control in the
+
direction increases the mid-range frequency
response. Conversely, rotating the control to the -
direction decreases it.
TREBLE
control:
This control is used to increase or decrease the high
frequency response. The
"0"
center click position
produces a flat response. Rotating the control in the
+
direction increases the high frequency response.
Conversely, rotating the control in the - direction
decreases it.
41)
TONE BYPASS switch
When this switch is set to ON, the input signal does
not pass through the tone control circuitry so that it is
unaffected by the tone control circuitry.
Use this switch to obtain pure sound and to check
the tone control setting.
Set this switch to OFF to activate the tone control
circuitry.
�
FINE TUNING button
Press either side of this button to precisely tune the
station with Manual tuning.
When this button is pressed, the displayed frequency
changes by
0.01
MHz for FM and
1
kHz for AM
band.
�
TUNING button
Press either side of the TUNING button to carry out
