Selecting the Sound Mode
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 rear panel.
