Remote controller 4 AV receiver MASTER VOLUME VOL To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control, or the remote controller's [VOL] button. The volume can be set to MIN, 1 through 79, or MAX. Since the AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment, it has a wide volume range for precise adjustment. To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
