Step Nine – Turn On the AVR 144
Two steps are required the first time you turn on the AVR 144.
1. Gently press the Master Power Switch until the word OFF is no longer
visible. The Power Indicator above the two power switches should
light up in amber, indicating that the AVR is in Standby mode and is
ready to be turned on. See Figure 28. Normally, you may leave the
Master Power Switch in the ON position, even when the receiver is
not being used.
Figure 28 – Power Switches
2. There are several ways in which the AVR 144 may be turned on from
Standby mode.
a) Press the Standby/On Switch on the front panel. See Figure 28.
b) Press the Source Select Button on the front panel. See Figure 29.
Figure 29 – Source Select Button
c) Using the remote, press any one of these buttons: AVR, DVD, CD,
TAPE, VID1, VID2, VID3, AM/FM or 6CH. See Figure 30.
Figure 30 – AVR and Input Selectors
NOTE:
Any time you press one of the Input Selectors on the
remote (i.e., DVD, CD, TAPE, VID1, VID2 or VID3), the remote
will switch modes so that it will only transmit the codes pro-
grammed to operate that device. In order to control the receiver,
you will need to press the AVR Button to return the remote to
AVR mode.
You are now ready for Initial Setup, in which you will make a few adjust-
ments to ensure that your new AVR 144 receiver performs at its best.
