Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue your- self, 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 VCR/DVR, press ON/ STANDBY. “Clear” will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.

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

To reset the remote controller to its factory defaults, while holding down RECEIVER, press and hold down AUDIO until the remote indicator lights (about 3 sec- onds). Within 30 seconds, press RECEIVER

again.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is con- nected to the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPO- NENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

■Can’t turn on the AV receiver

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

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five — seconds or more, then plug it in again.

The protection circuit has been activated. Remove

—

the power cord from the wall outlet immediately.

 

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, dis-

 

connect 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.
