The STANDBY indicator flashes red • Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and then leave the receiver with its power cord disconnected for one hour. After that, reconnect the power cord and set the volume to maximum. If the receiver stays on, set then the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources. If the receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact your Insignia dealer. No sound • Make sure that the digital input source is selected properly. • Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way. • Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all components are connected properly. • Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wires are in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal. • Make sure that the input source is properly selected. • Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting. • Check the volume. The receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment. It has a wide volume range, allowing precise adjustment. • If the MUTING indicator is flashing on the display, press the remote control MUTING button to unmute the receiver. • While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers. • If there is no sound from a DVD player connected to HDMI IN jack, check the DVD player's output settings, and be sure to select a supported audio format. • Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some game consoles, such as those that support DVD, the default setting is off. • With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu. • If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer. • Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged. • Not all listening modes use all speakers. • Specify the speaker distances and adjust the individual speaker levels. • The input signal format is set to PCM or DTS.

Noise can be heard • Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don't do it. • An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables. The Late Night function does not work • Make sure that the source material is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD. DTS signal problems • When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about three seconds, and then resume playback. • With some CD and LD players, you won't be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (for example, output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the receiver does not recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise. • When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction. The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can not be heard • Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, audio output may not start immediately. VIDEO Problems No picture • Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way. • Make sure that each video component is properly connected. • If the video source is connected to a component video input, you must assign that input to an input selector, and your TV must be connected to COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT. • If the video source is connected to a composite video input, your TV must be connected to the corresponding composite video output. • If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, you must assign that input to an input selector, and your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT. • On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the receiver is connected is selected. There is no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN • Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not guaranteed. The on-screen menus do not appear • On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the receiver is connected is selected. • When the receiver doesn't connect TV with HDMI, onscreen menus are not displayed. 30 www.insigniaproducts.com
