Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact your Onkyo dealer.

If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting your Onkyo dealer.

To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR] button, press the [STANDBY/ON] button. “Clear” will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.

STANDBY/ON

VCR/DVR

Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your radio presets and custom settings.

Power

Can’t turn on the AV receiver

•Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall outlet properly.

•Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it back in again.

The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned on

•The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immedi- ately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and leave the AV receiver with its power cord discon- nected for 1 hour. After that, reconnect the power cord and set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet

•Make sure that the digital input is assigned to the input selector (page 52).

•Make sure that the correct audio input is selected (page 70).

•Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 27).

•Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 22).

•Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

•Check the volume (page 62). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

•If the MUTING indicator is flashing on the display, press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 68).

•While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the main room speakers (page 69).

•Check the digital audio output settings on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

•If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must use an MC head amp or MC transformer (page 40).

•Check the speaker settings (pages 86–91).

•If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS, set it to Auto (page 70).

•If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected to an HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output settings, and be sure to select a compatible audio format.

Only the front speakers produce sound

•When the Stereo listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

•In the Mono listening mode, only the front speakers output sound if the Output Speaker setting is set to L/R (page 83).

•Check the Speaker Configuration (page 86).

Only the center speaker produces sound

•If you use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV pro- gram, the sound will be concentrated in the center speaker.

•In the Mono listening mode, only the front speakers output sound if the Output Speaker setting is set to C (page 83).

•Check the Speaker Configuration (page 86).

The surround speakers produce no sound

•When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound.

•Depending on the source and the current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the sur- round speakers. Try another listening mode (page 71).

•Check the Speaker Configuration (page 86).

The center speaker produces no sound

•When the Stereo listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound.

•In the Mono listening mode, only the front speakers output sound if the Output Speaker setting is set to L/R (page 83).

•Check the Speaker Configuration (page 86).

The surround back speakers produce no sound

•The surround back speakers are not used with all lis- tening modes. Try another listening mode (page 71).

•Not much sound may be produced by the surround back speakers with some sources.

•Check the Speaker Configuration (page 86).
