JBL Consumer Products ENGLISH CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN ENGLISH CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equalateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. [. . . ] This feature allows the user to watch movies and listen to dialogue at toned-down levels so as not to disturb others by the loud sound effects that may be present. In 3-Stereo, all speakers except for the two surround speakers will be active. Volume Press () on the remote control or the front panel to raise the system's volume. Press () on the remote control or the front panel to lower the system's volume. 0 dB Press this button to reset the Center, Surround, Balance, Treble and Bass controls to their default positions. Test Press this button to activate the Test Tone mode (see Test Tone section). Delay The relative timing of sounds coming from the center and/or surround speakers compared to the front-left and front-right speakers can be adjusted. The first press of the Delay button allows adjustments of the surround speakers; indicators LS (28) and RS (28) and DLY (30) will be on. The delay can be adjusted from zero (all status bars off) to 15 ms (all status bars on) in DTS and Dolby Digital and from 15 ms (all status bars off) to 30 ms (all status bars on) in Dolby Pro Logic (there is an inherent and fixed 15 ms of delay added in the "matrixed" Dolby Pro Logic to re-create the proper surround effect). The second press of this button allows adjustment of the center channel, all the way from the default setting of 0 ms (milliseconds), which means no delay (all status bars off), to a maxi- mum of 5 ms (5 status bars on). The center and surround adjustments can be done in either DTS, Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic "matrixed" modes. There are no separate delay adjustments for the individual modes of operation. During adjustments, the audio mutes momentarily every time the Adjustment +/­ button (11) is pressed. Please note that the status-bar indicator (27) will not display unless Adjustment +/­ buttons are pressed. Also, while the status-bar indicator (27) is on, channel indicators (28) and DLY (30) will not be displayed. And, if adjustments are done in a mode where a certain channel is not available, the adjustment step for that channel is skipped. For example, in Phantom mode, the center-channel delay cannot be adjusted since Phantom does not have a center channel. In Stereo, neither the center nor the surround delay can be adjusted since Stereo does not feature surround speakers or a center speaker. A third press of the Delay button will exit the escXcite from its delay-adjustment mode. Level The relative level of sounds coming from each of the escXcite's speakers can be adjusted while listening to program material on the escXcite. Repeated pressing and releasing of the Level button allows access to each channel. The display will indicate LVL (29), and the channel indicators (28) LF (Left Front), C (Center), RF (Right Front), RS (Right Surround), LS (Left Surround) and SUB (subwoofer) will illuminate to indicate the ENGLISH -10- active speaker. [. . . ] The display status-bar indicator (27) provides visual indication of the adjustment as the adjustment is being made. The default adjustment level of 0 dB is indicated by five status-bar indicators illuminated. If adjustments are done in a mode where a certain channel is not available, the adjustment step for that channel is skipped. For example, in Phantom mode, the center-channel level cannot be adjusted since Phantom does not have a center channel. [. . . ]
