Processor Reset

In the rare case where the unit’s operation or the displays seem abnormal, the cause may involve the erratic operation of the system’s memory or microprocessor.

To correct this problem, first unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet and wait at least three minutes. After the pause, reconnect the AC power cord and check the unit’s operation. If the system still malfunctions, a system reset may clear the problem.

To clear the AVR580’s entire system memory including tuner presets, output level settings, delay times and speaker configuration data, first put the unit in Standby by pressing the System Power

Control Button 2. Next, press and hold the Surround Mode 7 and the Tuner Mode Selector ^ buttons for three

seconds.

The unit will turn on automatically and display the RESET message in the Main Information Display ˜.

NOTE: Resetting the processor will erase any configuration settings you have made

for speakers, output levels, surround modes and digital input assignments, as well as the tuner presets. After a reset, the unit will be returned to the factory presets, and all settings for these items must be reentered.

If the system is still operating incorrectly, there may have been an electronic dis- charge or severe AC line interference that has corrupted the memory or microprocessor.

If these steps do not solve the problem, consult an authorized JBL service center.
