Before you use your BDS receiver you need to configure it to work with your particular
speaker system. The BDS receiver’s EZSet/EQ
™

have correctly connected your speakers to the BDS receiver. IMPORTANT: Press the
remote’s “Disc” input button before performing the EZ Set/EQ procedure. The EZ
Set/EQ procedure is only available when the Disc input is selected.
