Troubleshooting and error codes
| Problem | Cause | What to Do |
|---|---|---|
| The unit fails to turn on when the STANDBY/ON switch is pressed, or turns into the standby mode suddenly soon after the power is turned on. | Power cord is not plugged in or is not completely inserted. | Firmly plug in the power cord. |
| The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is not set to either end. | Set the switch to either end when this unit is in the standby mode. | |
| This unit does not work normally. | There is an influence of strong external noise (lightning, excessive static electricity, etc.) or a misoperation on this unit while using this unit. | Turn this unit into the standby mode and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet. After about 30 seconds have passed, connect the power and operate this unit again. |
| No sound or no picture. | Incorrect output cord connections. | Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. |
| Appropriate input source is not selected. | Select the appropriate input source with the INPUT SELECTOR or the EXT. DECODER button. | |
| No picture | Speaker connections are not secure. | Secure the connections. |
| Digital signals other than PCM audio and Dolby Digital (or DTS) encoded signals which this unit cannot reproduce are input to this unit by playing a CD-ROM etc. | Play a source whose signals this unit can reproduce. | |
| The sound suddenly goes off. | There is no S video terminal connection between this unit and the TV, though S video signals are input to this unit. | Connect this unit's S VIDEO MONITOR OUT terminal to the TV's S video input terminal. |
| The protection circuit has been activated because of short circuit etc. | Turn this unit into the standby mode, and then turn on to reset the protection circuit. | |
| Only one side speaker outputs the sound. | The SLEEP timer came on. | Cancel the SLEEP timer function. |
| Incorrect setting of the BALANCE control. | Adjust it to the appropriate position. | |
| No sound from the effect speakers. | Incorrect cord connections. | Connect the cords properly. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. |
| No sound from the front effect speakers. | The EFFECT button is set off. | Press the EFFECT button to turn it on. |
| A Dolby Surround (or DTS) decoding program is being used with material not encoded with Dolby Surround (or DTS). | Use a different sound field program. | |

| Output mode selection for each channel (MAIN, CENTER or REAR) is improper. | Make output mode selections suitable for your speaker system. | |
| Sound "hums". | Incorrect cord connections. | Firmly connect the audio plugs. If the problem persists, the cords may be defective. |
| No connection from the turntable to the GND terminal. | Make the GND connection between the turntable and this unit. | |
| The volume level is low while playing a record. | The record is being played on a turntable with an MC cartridge. | The player should be connected to the unit through the MC head amplifier. |
| The volume level cannot be increased, or sound is distorted. | The component connected to the TAPE/MD OUT terminals of this unit is turned off. | Turn on the power to the component. |
| DSP parameters and some other settings on this unit cannot be changed. | The function "6. MEMORY GUARD" in the SET MENU mode is set to the "ON" position. | Set to the "OFF" position. |
| "INPUT DATA ERR" appears on the display and no sound is heard. | A nonstandardized source is played back, or the unit playing back a source is misoperating. | Check the source, or turn off the unit playing back the source and then turn on again. |
| The sound field cannot be recorded. | It is not possible to record the sound field on a tape deck connected to this unit's TAPE/MD OUT terminals. | |
| This unit does not operate properly. | The internal microcomputer has been frozen by an external electric shock (lightning, excessive static electricity, etc.) or power supply with low voltage. | Unplug the AC power cord from the wall AC outlet, and then plug in again after about one minute. |
| The source unit is connected to this unit between digital terminals only. | Make additional connection between analog terminals. | |
| A source cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR connected to this unit. | This unit is too close to the affected equipment. | Move the unit further away from the affected equipment. |
