When you listen with headphones
Connect the headphones to the PHONES jack. No
sound will come from the speakers.
Watching/listening to video programmes
When you watch/listen to TV or video programmes,
we recommend you play audio portion through the
receiver instead of your TV's speaker. This lets you
take advantage of the receiver's surround sound
effects, such as Dolby Pro Logic Surround and lets you
use the receiver's remote to control the audio. Turn off
the speakers on your TV before you start so you can
enjoy the surround sound from your receiver.

tuner and the receiver and press TV/SAT on the receiver.
