ENGLISH Troubleshooting Guide Often, what appears to be a malfunction is due to user error. Before calling for service, please consult the following table. Problem Cause Remedy ● The fuse is blown. ● Check the (+)/(-) polarity of the power cord and that the cords are not shorted, then replace with a fuse with the rated capacity. ● Re-connect the cords correctly by referring to the connection example (on page 5). Power cannot be turned on (the POWER indicator does not light). ● The power supply pin (yellow) of the 10-pin connection cord is not connected. ● The power control pin (blue) of the 10-pin connection cord is not connected. ● The 10-pin connector is not plugged in completely. ● The grounding pin (black) of the 10-pin connection cord is not connected. ● Connect the cord correctly by referring to the connection example (on page 5). ● Check the connections of all cords, then connect the (-) cable to the battery. ● Insert the connector all the way in. ● Attach the grounding terminal to the metallic section of the vehicle (not a coated surface) by tightly screwing it. ● The negative (-) cable of the car battery is disconnected. ● Check the connections of all cords, then connect the (-) cable to the battery. ● The attenuator of the center unit is set to ON. ● Switch the attenuator OFF. ● The LEVEL control is set to the MIN position. ● Increase the volume to an optimum level. No sound ● The speaker cords are connected improperly. ● Connect the cords correclty by referring to the connection example (on page 5). ● Connection terminals are connected improperly. ● The remote control cord is unplugged. ● Insert the connectors or jacks all the way in to the terminals. ● Plug the cord into the remote control connector.
