Notes
• It takes some time to output the sound after a
playback operation is performed on the connected
equipment (e.g., pressing the PLAY button,
pressing the STOP button, pressing the PAUSE
button) due to limitations of the H.A.T.S. system.
The time lag depends on the sound source.
• The H.A.T.S. function of this receiver works when
a Sony SCD-XA5400ES is connected to the
receiver.
• While the H.A.T.S. function is working, sound is
not output from the front high speakers.
• The H.A.T.S. function works only when "A.F.D.
Auto," "2ch Stereo," or "Headphone (2ch)" is
selected.
