If you have a tripod, use it to place the microphone so that 
it’s about ear level at your normal listening position. If you 
do not have a tripod, use some other object to install the 
microphone.

When you’re finished setting the options, select 
START then press ENTER.

Follow the instructions on-screen.
• Make  sure the microphone is connected.
• If  you’re using a subwoofer, it is automatically 
detected every time you switch on the system. Make 
sure it is on and the volume is turned up.
• See Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on 
page 43 for notes regarding high background noise 
levels and other possible interference.
6
Wait for the Auto MCACC Setup to finish 
outputting test tones.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while the 
receiver outputs test tones to determine the speakers 
present in your setup. Try to be as quiet as possible while 
it’s doing this. 
• Do not adjust the volume during the test tones. This 
may result in incorrect speaker settings.
• With  error messages (such as Too much ambient 
noise! or Check microphone) select RETRY after 
checking for ambient noise (see Problems when 
using the Auto MCACC Setup
 on page 43) and 
verifying the mic connection. If there doesn’t seem to 
be a problem, you can simply select GO NEXT and 
continue.
7
If necessary, confirm the speaker configuration in 
the GUI screen.
2
The configuration shown on-screen should reflect the 
actual speakers you have.
If no operations are performed for 10 seconds while the 
speaker configuration check screen is being displayed, 
the Auto MCACC Setup will resume automatically. In this 
case, you don’t need to select ‘OK’ and press ENTER in 
step 8.
 
Note
1 It may not be possible to measure correctly if the microphone is placed on a table, sofa, etc.
