NOTE: Since the setting for the turn-on volume cannot be heard while the setting is being made, you may wish to determine the setting before making the adjustment. To do this, listen to any source and adjust the volume to the desired level using the regular Volume Controls )rî. When the desired volume level to be used at turn-on is reached, make a note of the setting as it appears in the lower third of the video screen or in the Lower Display Line $. (A typical volume level will appear as a negative number such as �25dB.) When making the adjustment, use the � / � Navigation Button o to enter this setting. Unlike some of the other adjustments in this menu, the turn-on volume default will remain in effect until it is changed or turned off in this menu, even when the unit is turned off. If you wish to make other adjustments, press the Navigation Button o until the on-screen � cursor is next to the desired setting or the BACK TO MASTER MENU line, and press the Set Button q. If you have no other adjustments to make, press the OSD Button U to exit the menu system.

Full-OSD Time-Out Adjustment
The FULL OSD menu system is used to simplify the setup and adjustment of the AVR 430 by using a series of on-screen menus. The factory default setting for these menus leaves them on the screen for 20 seconds after a period of inactivity before they disappear from the screen (Time-Out). Time-Out is a safety measure to prevent image retention of the menu text in your monitor or projector, which might happen if it were left on indefinitely. However, some viewers may prefer a slightly longer or shorter period before the on-screen display disappears. To change the full-OSD Time-Out, you will need to make an adjustment in the ADVANCED SELECT menu (Figure 15). To start the adjustment, press the OSD Button U to bring the MASTER MENU to the screen. Press the ¤ Navigation Button o, until the on-screen � cursor is next to the ADVANCED line. Press the Set Button q to enter the ADVANCED SELECT menu (Figure 15). At the ADVANCED SELECT menu (Fig. 15) make certain that the on-screen � cursor is next to the FULL OSD TIME OUT line by pressing the �/¤ Navigation Button o as needed. Next, press the � / � Navigation Button o until the desired time is displayed in seconds. Unlike most of the other options in this menu, this is a permanent setting change, and the Time-Out entry will remain in effect until it is changed, even if the unit is turned off.

Semi-OSD Settings
The semi-OSD system places one-line messages at the lower third of the video display screen whenever the Volume, Input Source, Surround mode, tuner frequency or any of the configuration settings is changed. The semi-OSD system is helpful in that it enables you to have feedback on any control changes or remote commands using the video display when it is difficult to view the front-panel displays. However, you may also prefer to turn these displays off permanently. You may also want to adjust the length of time the displays remain on the screen. Both of those options are possible with the AVR 430. To adjust the on-screen appearance of the semi-OSD system, press the OSD Button U to bring the MASTER MENU to the screen. Press the ¤ Navigation Button o, until the on-screen � cursor is next to the ADVANCED line. Press the Set Button q to enter the ADVANCED SELECT menu. When the ADVANCED SELECT menu appears, press the �/¤ Navigation Button o so that the on-screen � cursor is pointing to the SEMI OSD/TIME OUT line. Select one of these options:
