If you have changed speakers or have a new speaker system, use “Auto Setup” to 
optimize the speaker settings again (p.47). If you want to adjust the speaker settings 
manually, use “Manual Setup” in the “Setup” menu (p.124).

If a small child accidentally operates the controls on the main unit or remote control, the 
volume may suddenly increase. This may also cause injury or damage the unit or 
speakers. We recommend using “Max Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the maximum 
volume level for the unit in advance (p.129). You can also set the maximum volume for 
Zone2 or Zone3 (p.136).

By default, the volume level when the unit last entered standby mode is automatically 
applied. If you want to fix the volume, use “Initial Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the 
volume to be applied when the receiver is turned on (p.130). You can also set the initial 
volume for Zone2 or Zone3 (p.136).

You can correct volume differences between input sources by utilizing “Input Trim” in 
the “Option” menu (p.110).

To use HDMI Control, you need to perform the HDMI Control link setup (p.168). After 
connecting HDMI Control-compatible devices (such as BD/DVD players) to the unit, 

enable HDMI Control on each device and perform the HDMI Control link setup. This 
setup is required every time you add a new HDMI Control-compatible device to your 
system. For information on how HDMI Control works between your TV and playback 
devices, refer to the instruction manuals for each device.

By default, short messages are displayed on the TV screen when the unit is operated 
(such as input selection and volume adjustment). If the short messages bother you 
when you are watching movies or sports, configure “Short Message” (p.139) in the 
“Setup” menu to turn off the short messages.

You can protect the settings configured on the unit (such as speaker settings) by 
utilizing “Memory Guard” in the “Setup” menu (p.140).

When using multiple Yamaha products, the remote control may work on another 
Yamaha product or another remote control may work on the unit. If this happens, 
register different remote control IDs for the devices that you want to control with each 
remote control (p.145).

If you have connected a video device to the unit with HDMI, you can output 
videos/audio played back on the video device to the TV even when the unit is in 
standby mode. To use this function, set “Standby Through” (p.133) in the “Setup” menu 
to “On”. You can also switch the input source using the remote control of the unit when 
this function is enabled.
