Selecting the Sound Mode (depending on the model)
ENG
The “S.Mode” button displays/controls the processing and output
of the audio signal. When power is switched on, the mode is
automatically preset to either “Dual-I ” or “Stereo”, depending on
the current transmission.
➣
◆ If the receiving conditions deteriorate, listening will be
easier if the mode is set to the
MONO.
◆ If the stereo signal is weak and an automatic switching
occurs, then switch to the
MONO.
◆ When receiving a mono sound in the AV mode, connect
to the “AUDIO-L” input connector on the panel (front or
side). If the mono sound comes out only from left
speaker, press the
S.Mode button.
