The sleep time will be shown for a few seconds in the display on the

DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE

Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital.
When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital,
sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display
which will read "Dial Norm X dB" (X being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material
has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example,
if you see the following message: "Dial Norm + 4 dB" in the front panel
display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the
volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you
are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual.
If you do not see a message in the front panel display, then no
adjustment of the volume control is necessary.
