Setting Eco mode
With the Eco mode ON, this unit will automatically enter the standby
mode after about 30 continuous minutes of no output from the
speakers or headphones. During standby mode with the Eco mode
ON, the Power indicator is unlit to reduce power consumption.
Press and hold [AMPLIFIER POWER] on the remote
control for at least 5 seconds.
Eco mode is switched between On and Off.
The Power indicator indicates Eco mode On/Off during Standby, as
shown below.
Eco mode “Off”
“Lit in red”
Eco mode “On”
“Unlit”
The Power indicator flashes in red during Eco mode setting.
If you set the Eco mode while the unit is ON, the unit will enter the
standby mode as soon as the Eco mode setting is completed.
The default setting for the Eco mode is OFF.
NOTE
If a source other than that selected with INPUT SELECTOR is
selected with <REC OUT SELECTOR>, this unit does not enter the
standby mode.
This unit enters the standby mode if it detects no output from
the source selected with INPUT SELECTOR. Therefore if a source
not selected with INPUT SELECTOR is output from the REC OUT
terminals, the function of automatically entering standby mode is
disabled to avoid interruption of power during recording.
