Operation

10

1. Press the 

button on the front

panel 

1

to turn the unit on. Note that

the ring surrounding the power switch
will turn green, the display will light and
the volume indicator mark 

Ó

will turn

green. 

If the unit thereby switches on to the
Standby mode (that’s the case if it was in
Standby mode at switch off) it simply can
be switched on by pressing any input
selector on the front panel.

• If you wish to use the remote to turn
the unit on and off, you must first engage
the front panel power button. The unit
may then be turned on and off by
pressing the 

b

button on

the remote. When using the remote the
unit is placed in a “standby” mode rather
than being totally shut off, and the ring
surrounding the power button will glow
amber.

• When you will be away from home for
an extended period of time it is always
best to turn the unit completely off using
the front panel power button.

2. Select the desired program source
using the input selector switches

6

. The

name of the selected input source will
appear in the information display
window. When the tuner is in use, the
selected station’s frequency or RDS data
will be displayed.

• When the selected input source is VCR1
or VCR2, the video signal for that input
will be switched to the 

jack and will be

viewable on a TV Monitor connected to
the AVR11. Be certain that your TV is set
to the proper “VIDEO” input to view the
signal.

3. Choose surround mode using the

mode select button

.

Consult the Surround Mode selection
section on page 8 for information on
surround modes. To listen to traditional
two channel (left/right) stereo press the

button.

4. Adjust the 

k

and/or 

h

if a change is

required from the setting established
during installation.

5. Adjust the volume to a comfortable
level using the front panel volume
control 

Ô

or the up/down volume

controls on the remote 

n

.

the remote 

q

. Press the button again to

resume normal listening.

7. For private listening, insert the 6,3 mm

that when the headphones are plugged in
the sound from the speakers is
automatically cut off. 

TUNER OPERATION

The AVR11’s built in tuner is capable of
tuning AM, FM or FM Stereo broadcast
stations, and features the added benefits
of RDS operation. Stations may be tuned
manually, automatically or via presets.

Manual Tuning
1. Press the 

button 

6

to select

the tuner as an input and the desired
frequency band.

2. Press the 

#

button

so that the AUTO indicator in the display
is not on.

3. Press the 

&

button

until the desired station is tuned. Holding
the button down will cause a rapid
advance through the frequency band,
while tapping it lightly will advance
through bands one increment at a time.

4. Note that the 

T U N E D

indicator will

illuminate when a station is received with
sufficient strength for quality reception.

5. Press the 

# 

button

to switch between mono and stereo
reception. In cases where a station’s
signal is weak, press the button until the

AUTO

indicator in the information

display goes out. This will switch the
tuner to mono, but it may enable clearer
reception of the signal.
