Troubleshooting-Continued Remote Controller The remote controller doesn't work • Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor- rect polarity (page 13). • Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV controller and there's no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV controller's remote control sensor (page 13). • Make sure you've selected the correct remote controller mode (page 14). • Make sure you've entered the correct remote control code (page 116). Can't control other components • Make sure you've selected the correct remote control- ler mode (page 14). • If you've connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or an RI Dock to the GAME/TV IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or DOCK, respectively (see page 49). • The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one. • If none of the codes work, use the Learning function to learn the commands of the other component's remote controller (page 119). • With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all. • To control an Onkyo component that's connected via , point the remote controller at the AV controller. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 117). • To control an Onkyo component that's not connected via , or another manufacturer's component, point the remote controller at that component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 116). Can't learn commands from another remote controller • When learning commands, make sure that the trans- mitting ends of both remote controllers are pointing at each other. • Are you trying to learn from a remote controller that cannot be used for learning? Some commands cannot be learned, especially those that contain several instructions. Recording Can't record • On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected. • To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV control- ler, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT). • When the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, video recording is not possible because no video signals are output. Select another listening mode. Others The sound changes when I connect my headphones • When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it's already set to Stereo, Mono, or Direct, in which case it stays the same. How do I change the language of a multiplex source • On the Audio Adjust menu, change the Multiplex setting to Main or Sub (page 92). The functions don't work • To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV controller, even if they are connected digitally (page 42). • While Zone 2 or Zone 3 is selected, the functions don't work.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by this unit's malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly. Set the AV controller to Standby before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet. 123

Troubleshooting
—Continued
The remote controller doesn’t work
•
Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor-
rect polarity (page 13).
•
Make sure that the remote controller is not too far
away from the AV controller and there’s no obstruc-
tion between the remote controller and the AV control-
ler’s remote control sensor (page 13).
•
Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-
ler mode (page 14).
•
Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control
code (page 116).
Can’t control other components
•
Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-
ler mode (page 14).
•
If you’ve connected an
-capable Onkyo MD
recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TAPE
IN/OUT jacks, or an RI Dock to the GAME/TV IN
jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you
must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or DOCK,
respectively (see page 49).
•
The entered remote control code may not be correct. If
more than one code is listed, try each one.
•
If none of the codes work, use the Learning function
to learn the commands of the other component’s
remote controller (page 119).
•
With some AV components, certain buttons may not
work as expected, and some may not work at all.
•
To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via
, point the remote controller at the AV controller.
Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code
first (page 117).
•
To control an Onkyo component that’s not connected
via
, or another manufacturer’s component, point
the remote controller at that component. Be sure to enter
the appropriate remote control code first (page 116).
Can’t learn commands from another remote
controller
•
When learning commands, make sure that the trans-
mitting ends of both remote controllers are pointing at
each other.
•
Are you trying to learn from a remote controller that
cannot be used for learning? Some commands cannot
be learned, especially those that contain several
instructions.
Can’t record
•
On your recorder, make sure the correct input is
selected.
•
To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV control-
ler, input signals are not fed through to outputs with
the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or
VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).
•
When the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, video
recording is not possible because no video signals are
output. Select another listening mode.
The sound changes when I connect my head-
phones
•
When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo,
Mono, or Direct, in which case it stays the same.
How do I change the language of a multiplex
source
•
On the Audio Adjust menu, change the Multiplex set-
ting to Main or Sub (page 92).
The
functions don’t work
•
To use
, you must make an
connection and an
analog audio connection (RCA) between the compo-
nent and AV controller, even if they are connected dig-
itally (page 42).
•
While Zone 2 or Zone 3 is selected, the
functions
don’t work.
The AV controller’s display doesn’t work
•
The display is turned off when the Pure Audio listen-
ing mode is selected. Select another listening mode.
Components connected to the AV controller’s
AC outlets don’t turn on or off when the AV con-
troller is set to On or Standby
•
When the HDMI Control setting is set to Enable
(page 107), the AC outlets are on all the time regard-
less of whether the AV controller is set to On or
Standby, or Ready mode in this case, so any compo-
nents connected to them cannot be turned on or off
automatically.

Others
The AV controller contains a microcomputer for signal
processing and control functions. In very rare situations,
severe interference, noise from an external source, or
static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely
event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back
in again.
Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD
rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by
this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important
data, make sure that the material will be recorded cor-
rectly.
Set the AV controller to Standby before disconnecting
the power cord from the wall outlet.
