Troubleshooting Tips
Receiver/Tuner Operation
STEREO indicator is off.
Adjust the antenna.
The signal is Mono. Severe hum or noise.
The signal is too weak. Connect an external anten-
na.
Remote Control Operation
The remote control does not operate the unit.
Another function mode is selected on the remote.
Press the correct Source Button.
No batteries installed. (included with your system)
Install the batteries before attempting to operate the
remote. Be sure to match the + and - ends of each
battery to the symbols shown in the remote battery
compartment.
The batteries are weak. Replace all batteries.
The remote is not pointed at the remote control
sensor on the main unit or there is an obstacle
between the remote and the main unit.
The remote control is too far from the main unit,
move closer.
General
No audio.
Make sure the speakers are connected.
• Check the connections.
Check the power cord connections.
• Make sure the
MUTE
indicator on the front panel
is off.
Make sure the digital setting (optical, coaxial or
analog) is correct.
Check if connections is different from recommen-
dation when SDET is ON (see p.12 Smart Detect).
No audio from one channel.
• Check the speaker level setting.
• Check the speaker wire or cable connections.
Noise creates when the TV is turned on.
The TV is too close to the audio system.
Specific instruments sound displaced.
Check the connections between the receiver and
the speakers if the sound does not match the video.
Press the Source Button for the video source.
Cleaning the Exterior
Disconnect the system from AC power before
cleaning the exterior of the system with a
soft dust
cloth, or with a slightly humid chamois leather. Never
use strong solvents.
