Factory Default Menu
Reset to factory
default settings?
YES = ENTER
NO = BACK
The final menu that can be reached from the SYSTEM SETUP
screen is the FACTORY DEFAULT menu, which resets all system
configuration settings to the factory supplied settings.
Note: Resetting to factory default settings will erase all stored set-
tings including delay settings, speaker settings, balance settings,
input settings and more. You will lose ALL system configuration
settings. Be certain that you wish to do so before resetting the
factory defaults.
To reset the factory defaults, press the ENTER button. This will
take you to a confirmation screen where you will have a chance
to confirm your decision by pressing ENTER a second time.
To return to the SYSTEM SETUP screen without resetting the fac-
tory defaults, press the BACK button.
