Troubleshooting—Continued

There’s no sound with a certain signal format?

•Check the digital audio output setting on the con- nected device. On some games consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

Can’t get 5.1-channel playback?

•When speaker B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced to 2.1-channel playback.

The volume cannot be set to 79?

•When the levels of all speakers have been calibrated (pages 43, 51), the maximum volume setting may change.

Noise can be heard?

•Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do it.

•An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work?

•Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital (page 48).

The DVD analog multichannel input doesn’t work?

•Check the DVD analog multichannel input connec- tions (page 25).

•To select the DVD analog multichannel input, press the [MULTI CH] input selector button.

•Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

•When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit- stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to pre- vent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about three seconds, and then resume playback.

•With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is con- nected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recog- nize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

•When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a mal- function.

Video

There’s no picture?

•Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 22).

•Make sure that each video component is properly con- nected.

•On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t appear?

•Relocate your antenna.

•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or com- puter.

•Listen to the station in mono (page 38).

•When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.

•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.

•Concrete walls weaken radio signals.

•If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.
