[. . . ] You'll notice the menu is highlighted to let you know where you are. MENU BUTTON UP ARROW LEFT ARROW RIGHT ARROW EXIT BUTTON When a menu item is highlighted, press ENTER to see the submenus or to activate the option that is highlighted. DOWN ARROW ENTER BUTTON On-Screen Menus Audio Treble: Use the Å and Ç arrow buttons to increase or decrease the amount of high frequency sound. Bass-Subwoofer: Use the Å and Ç arrow buttons to increase or decrease the amount of low frequency sound. Use the arrow button to highlight OFF, ON or Wide and press ENTER. Setup The Setup menu is described in Chapter 1. If you add components to your system or change how they are connected, you may need to access the Setup menu to tell your Klipsch system what is where and how it is connected. Go to page 9 for detailed instructions. Languages Menu: Choose the language of the on-screen menus. If the DVD was formatted with that language, the DVD will play in the language you select. Subtitle: For DVDs, you can change the language setting for subtitles. If the DVD was formatted with subtitles in the language chosen in this menu, the subtitles will appear in that language. Turn on subtitles via the Info Banner during playback (page 17). MENU SYSTEM page 21/22 Parental Control The Parental Control menu lets you password-protect DVDs by using the MPAA (Motion Pictures Association of America) rating system to tell the Klipsch system which ratings require a password in order to play the DVD. Note: This function only works if a DVD disc contains the rating level information. Lock System/Unlock System: Locking the system puts the ratings limit you have selected into effect. MPAA Ratings: Use the Å and Ç arrow buttons on the remote to select the highest rating you find acceptable. Unrated Content: Some discs contain movies that don't have a rating assigned to them. Also, much of the new content on DVDs, such as director's cuts, interviews with actors, etc. , is unrated. In this menu, tell the Klipsch system how you want unrated content to be handled. Choose Lock Unrated Content if you want unrated content to be password protected. Set Password: Use the number buttons on the remote control to enter the password that will be required for DVD content that is rated above the level you have set as acceptable in the MPAA Ratings menu. Note: It's a good idea to write down your password and keep it in a safe place. Remote Control The easiest way to control your home theater experience is to take the time to program the remote control to operate your TV, set-top box or any other components you have connected to your Klipsch system. To program the remote control, you have to find the code that matches the component you have. TV: In order for your Klipsch remote control to operate your TV, follow the instructions in Chapter 2. SAT-CABLE-HD: This menu has codes for satellite receivers, cable boxes, and HD receivers. Use the codes in this menu to program your remote control to operate the type of set-top box you connected to your Klipsch system. AUX 1: Use codes to program the remote control to operate a connected component, preferably the component you have connected to the AUX 1 jacks on the back of your Klipsch system. AUX 2: Use codes to program the remote control to operate a connected component, preferably the component you have connected to the AUX 2 jacks on the side of your Klipsch system.
