What settings to change when your subwoofer dies?

So I'm just kind of messing around with some spare audio equipment I have in my bedroom. I'm using a Denon AVR-1312 and the 5 speakers from Panasonic SC-PT660, no sub. I don't expect it to sound amazing, just better than the TV speakers. I have a cambridge soundworks P200 sub that I think might just need a fuse replaced but for now, I'm just trying to make this work.

I set the subwoofer setting to off. I'm not sure which speakers to set to large and which to small. Should I change the crossover? Right now I have them all set to large but it that too much for these speakers? Heres a link to the speakers https://www.cnet.com/products/panasonic-sc-pt660/specs/

If you told the avr there is no sub just leave/set your speakers to large/full range, just don't exceed their limits with the volume control would be the way I'd start. Crossover is active when you set speakers to small and indicate you're using a sub. Maybe tell the avr there is a sub and then you can use the crossover to protect the speakers but I'd try large/full range first, possible your avr will set a high pass filter for your speakers with no sub enabled but I don't know, never really tried that.
