Frequently Asked Questions - DHT-1312BA DENON

How do I connect my TV to the DENON DHT-1312BA?

Use an HDMI cable to connect the receiver's HDMI output to the TV's HDMI input. To listen to TV sound through the system, also connect an optical digital audio output from the TV to the receiver's optical input (assign it via the Input Assign menu).

Can I play 3D videos with this system?

Yes, the DENON DHT-1312BA supports 3D video signals via HDMI 1.4a. You need to connect a compatible 3D Blu-ray player and a 3D TV. Note that the OSD menu display may interrupt 3D playback.

How do I adjust the surround mode for a movie?

Press the SURROUND button on the remote to cycle through modes. For a movie, select Dolby Pro Logic IIx Cinema or DTS Neo:6 Cinema depending on the signal. You can fine-tune settings via the Audio Adjust menu (press AUDIO ADJUST then ENTER).

What should I do if no picture appears on the screen?

Check HDMI connections, ensure the TV is set to the correct input, and that the source device is on. If the TV is not HDCP compatible, the video signal may be blocked. Try changing the resolution of the source player.

How do I connect an iPod or iPhone?

Use a compatible DENON dock (ASD-11R, ASD-3N, ASD-3W, ASD-51N or ASD-51W) sold separately. Connect the dock to the DOCK terminal on the receiver. Place the iPod in the dock, select the DOCK source, then navigate with the remote. For video, also connect the VIDEO MONITOR output to the TV.

The subwoofer produces no sound, what should I check?

Ensure the subwoofer is powered on and properly connected to the SUBWOOFER terminal of the receiver. In the Speaker Config. menu, verify that Subwoofer is set to Yes. If the front speakers are configured as Large and SW mode is LFE, some signals may not activate the subwoofer.

How do I preset radio stations?

First tune to the desired station manually or automatically. Press MEMORY, then select a memory block (A-G) with SHIFT and a preset number with CH+/-. Press MEMORY again to confirm. Up to 56 stations can be stored.

The remote control does not work, what should I do?

Replace the batteries (R03/AAA) respecting polarities. Check that no obstacles are between the remote and the sensor (max distance 7 m, angle 30°). Avoid direct sunlight or fluorescent lamps on the sensor.

Can I use the Restorer function to improve audio quality?

Yes, the RESTORER function regenerates signals lost during compression (MP3, WMA, etc.). Press RESTORER to activate it (RSTR lights up). It is only available with analog or PCM 44.1/48 kHz signals. Not available in Direct mode.

How do I reset the unit in case of malfunction?
