Troubleshooting Tips

AM / FM Operation
STEREO indicator is off in FM mode.
• Adjust the antenna.
• Press MONO / ST button to insure you are not outputting in mono.
The signal is Mono. Severe hum or noise.
• The signal is too weak. Connect an external antenna.
• Adjust antenna.
• Reposition antenna away from any electronics.
There is interference to FM reception.
• Turn off other electrical unit (e.g. DVD, BD, CD player) near the unit.
Remote Control Operation
The remote control does not operate the unit.
• 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 input connections.
• Check the power cord connections.
• Make sure MUTE is off.
• Make sure the digital setting (optical, coaxial or analog) is correct.
• Check that the headphone is not inserted.
No audio from one channel.
• Check the speaker level setting.
• Check the speaker wire or external source cable connections.
Noise occurs when the TV is turned on.
• The TV is too close to the audio system.
Not getting audio from all speakers.
• Check your Surround Mode setting (under Advanced Sound Control
section of this book). Your Home Theater has a number of different
SURROUND MODE settings, it defaults to modes most suited to the
type of audio content being played – however you can change these
settings. Some of these modes, (such as DOLBY DIGITAL, and Dolby
PROLOGIC II), will cause all speakers to be active, while other modes,
(such as STEREO and 3-STEREO), will cause your rear speakers to be
inactive. You can always test your Home Theater amplifier - and each
speaker, by using the built-in TEST TONE generator (press TEST TONE
button on remote control).

Care and Maintenance

Disconnect the audio system from the power source before performing
any maintenance.
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 damp leather chamois.
Never use strong solvents.

skin burns or other personal injuries.
• Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to provincial
and local regulations.

type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the
same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a
battery not intended to be recharged.
