[. . . ] The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated `dangerous voltage' within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. Caution: in Canada and the usa, to prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot in the socket and insert the plug fully into the socket. Important safety instructions 1. Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning. [. . . ] When activated, a calibration tone is played through each channel of the AVr400 in turn, including the subwoofer channel. The calibration tone cycles round each of the speakers multiple times as the different parameters are calculated. If you do not have a full 7. 1 The Auto Speaker Setup function is found within the Setup menus, see page E-36. By default, Room eQ is not applied to any of the source inputs. You should enable room EQ on inputs you think benefit from this feature, as required, by listening when playing typical source material through each input. This is enabled from within the Input Config menu. While room equalisation can help to reduce problems with listening room acoustics, it is usually far better to try to solve these problems with the room directly. Proper loudspeaker positioning, acoustic wall treatments and moving the listening position away from walls should produce far better results overall. However it may be difficult to do this in a home environment, so room EQ is your next best choice. Auto Speaker Setup will attempt to choose a crossover frequency that allows the smoothest low frequency transition from the main speakers to the subwoofer. However if this does not produce pleasing results we recommend manually trying other crossover frequencies to find something more to your preference. See the next sections for information of how to enter or change speaker settings manually. Problems We advise you to look over the reported measurements on the screen following Auto Speaker Setup for any obviously incorrect results, in particular to ensure the reported speakers match your configuration and that the speaker distances to the listening position appear look roughly correct.
