The RC-BUS of this series enables, among others,
that the receiver automatically selects the correspon-
AUX
ding source if the respective unit starts to play.

E.g.:
• If you press the B, SHUFFLE, S or T
buttons on the CD player, the receiver
automatically selects the input CD.
• If you press PLAY B on the cassette deck, the
receiver automatically selects the input TAPE.
MONITOR

Switching the speakers on and off
Use the SPEAKERS button to switch the speakers
connected to the SPEAKERS A and/or the
CD
SPEAKERS B terminals on and off.

– The activated speakers will light up on the
CD
display and are selected in the following order:
SPEAKERS A -> SPEAKERS B -> SPEAKERS A+B -
B
> OFF -> SPEAKERS A -> etc.
CD
The click you hear when you press the SPEAKERS
A
B
button comes from the relay which switches the
CD
speakers on/off.
SOUND CONTROL
VOLUME
The volume can be adjusted with the rotary
VOLUME knob.
The volume can also be controlled via the remote
CD
control with the VOLUME +/– buttons.
LOUD
An illuminated dot in the VOLUME knob indicates
A
the respective adjustment position.
MUTING
The volume can be completely muted by pressing
the
button on the remote control.
This is useful, for example, if you want to take a
telephone call and do not want to be distracted by
music, news, etc., from your system.
If the muting function is used when recording a
tape, this has no effect on the subsequent recording
volume level as only the speakers are muted.
CD
The LED in the volume knob blinks when the
DIRECT
MUTING function is active.
A
The MUTING function can be deactivated by
pressing the
button again or by pressing the
VOLUME + button on the remote control or any one
of the input selection buttons.
BASS, TREBLE
The BASS and TREBLE controllers can be used to
individually adjust the higher and lower frequencies
from the sound of your speakers. In this way, you
can compensate for surrounding acoustic
irregularities which may be caused, for
example, by sound reflection behaviour on walls
with relatively large, empty surface areas, or
"damping" caused by furniture or other objects.
Note: These controls only function when 'DIRECT' is
switched off.
Monitor
The AUX input has two modes of operation:
As a normal input and as monitor.
Normal input mode
• To select the AUX input in normal mode, press the
SOURCE button until AUX appears on the
display.
• You can also press the TV, SAT or VCR key on
the remote control while the unit is switched to
standby.
– When AUX is working as a normal input the
display shows the AUX indication
• In normal mode you can record from the AUX
input to your cassette deck.
Monitor mode
• To select AUX in monitor mode, press the
MONITOR button while you are listening to
another source.
• You can also press the TV, SAT or VCR key on
the remote control while you are listening to
another source.
– The display shows MONITOR.
• In monitor mode you can listen to the AUX source
while recording from another source.
E.g. You can copy a CD to a cassette while
listening to your TV (if it is connected to AUX IN).
• In monitor mode you can also listen to the
recorded signal during recording if you have
connected a 3-head tape recorder to the AUX
IN/OUT sockets.
• To switch off the monitor function, press the
MONITOR button again or select another source.
Note: After switching on the receiver, the
MONITOR function is always switched off
LOUDNESS
Pressing the LOUDNESS button slightly accentuates
the lower and higher frequencies which renders a
more balanced overall sound during playback at a
low volume.
Its effectiveness depends in turn on the setting of the
volume knob. The sound is thus optimally adapted
to human hearing sensitivity, which is also
dependent on the respective volume.
If you have connected speakers which exhibit a
great deal of bass, LOUDNESS should always
remain off to achieve a more linear acoustic
pattern. In this way, you compensate for excessive
emphasis of the lower frequencies.
DIRECT
The DIRECT function bypasses all tone controls
bringing the sound unchanged to the speakers.
This means that the influence of the LOUDNESS,
BASS and TREBLE controls is removed from the
signal path
Note: LOUDNESS and DIRECT can not be switched
on at the same time.
BALANCE
For effective stereo playback, it is important that the
sound emanates equally from both speakers.
Acoustic equilibrium can be distorted by furniture
groups or the listener´s position in a room, thus
distorting the impression of stereo sound.
The BALANCE controller can compensate for such
distortions.
RADIO
Selecting the wave band
• Select the desired wave band (FM ANTENNA,
FM CABLE or MW) by pressing BAND.
• Pressing this button switches to the next wave
band in the following order: FM ANTENNA- FM
MUTING
F M
CABLE - MW - FM ANTENNA
– The display shows the selected band.
A
If you receive broadcasts via broad band cable of
MUTING
STEREO
F M
a public or private cable service, there may be high
signal inputs at your antenna terminal, which may in
A
turn cause reception disturbances.
MUTING
F M
87 50
• If this is the case, select FM CABLE to switch on
the input attenuator. This reduces the antenna
A
input sensitivity, thus reducing disturbances. This
MUTING
FM
setting is automatically stored after 5 seconds.
