Confirming active  subwoofer  setup
When a subwoofer is  connected, turn  on the subwoofer and turn  up the volume  prior  to activating  the
subwoofer. Turn the LEVEL  to just before the mid-point.
If you connect  a subwoofer with a crossover frequency function, set the value to maximum.
If you connect  a subwoofer with an auto  standby  function, set it to off (deactivated).
Note
Depending on the characteristics of the subwoofer you are  using, the setup  distance  value may be different
from the actual position.

Checking  Auto Calibration results
To check error codes or warning  messages received in [Auto Calibration], proceed with the following steps:
1.  Select [WRN Check ].
If a warning  message appears, check the message and use the receiver without change. Or if necessary,
perform   Auto Calibration again.
For details on the warning  messages, see “ List of messages after  Auto Calibration measurements .”
When error  code  appears
Check the error and perform  Auto Calibration again.
Hint
The  measurement results  may vary depending on the position  of the subwoofer. However,  continuing to use
the receiver with that value does not cause problems.
