TVLEFT, MONO AND RIGHT

ROOM ADAPTATION On the rear of LV3 is a switch for left, mono and right. Normally two LV3 speakers are used in one room for stereo sound. Set one speaker to RIGHT, the other to LEFT. NOTE: Only speaker set to RIGHT can receive commands from remote. MONO is used if you have only one LV3 in one room, and the other in another room. Or very large room, or reception hall where all speakers play in mono. Note that the speakers will reproduce sound in mono, not stereo. MONO MASTER If you have your LV3 speakers set to MONO, you will need to make one of them MONO MASTER to be able receive commands from the remote. Setting one speaker as MONO MASTER:

1. Aim remote at desired speakers, push Zone INFO button for 5 seconds.

2. Display will show “111”. Now the speaker is mono master speaker.

To change back to slave mode mono speaker, push Zone info button on remote again for 5 seconds, display shows “000”. When placing LV3 in your home, you may experience too much bass or too little, depending on where you place it. To solve this, LV3 has built in room adaptation (+10/-10 dB bass equalizer). By adjusting bass levels, you can find a good bass balance that suits your room. Generally, placing LV3 in a corner will reproduce more bass, placing LV3 in the middle of your room less bass. With room adaptation you can place LV3 anywhere you like, and then adjust bass levels to your liking. ADJUST BASS EQ:

1. Use buttons on speaker (not remote)

2. Press button “House Code” and hold it pressed
