Basic operations

Listening to your favorite source

1 Select the source you wish to listen to using the input

selector (e.g., PHONO).

Confirm that the

indicator is not lit when a

source other than Tape 2 Monitor is selected. Also check that
the AUDIO MUTE indicator is not lit.

Press the button for the speakers to which you wish to listen
(Speakers A and/or B). For the remote controller, press the
RCVR/Tape mode button before pressing the SP A or SP B but-
ton.
The corresponding A and/or B indicator lights up on the display
panel. You will hear from the speakers any sounds passing
through the unit. If both Speakers (A and B) are set to OFF, the
speakers will emit no sound.

Follow the operating instructions for the selected unit.
If you select FM or AM, refer to “Receiving stations” on
page 20.

Turn the Master Volume knob clockwise or press the

button on

the remote controller to increase the volume level. Turn the knob
counterclockwise or press the

button on the remote controller to

decrease the volume level.

the left and right speakers or headphones.

Notes:

outlet when not in use for a prolonged period of time.

• You cannot adjust the bass and treble when the Direct button is

Direct change function

When a compact disc player and tape deck that feature

jacks

are connected together, you can use the direct change function.

When you operate the compact disc player or tape deck, the input
selector on the DTM-5.3 switches automatically to the desired
component.

It is not necessary to switch the DTM-5.3’s input selector when
you change listening sources.

This direct change function does not work when Zone 2 is being
