Basic adjustment of auto memory

• when you change the analog/digital input mode (see page 13).
When you change the source, the memorized settings for the
newly selected source are automatically recalled.
The following can be stored for each source:
• Analog/digital input mode (see page 13)
• Tone adjustment (see page 22)
• Subwoofer output level (see page 22)
• Bass boost (see page 23)
• Input attenuator mode (see page 23)
• Balance (see page 23)
• Subwoofer audio position (see page 23)
• Surround/DSP mode selection (see pages 26 – 31)
NOTES
• If the source is FM or AM, you can assign a different setting for
each band.
• You cannot assign and store different settings for digital input
mode and analog input mode.
