Troubleshooting—Continued

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor- rect polarity (page 11).

Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 11).

Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control- ler mode (page 12).

Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 54).

Can’t control other components

Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control- ler mode (page 12).

If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or next generation HDD-com- patible component to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or a DS-A1 Remote Interactive Dock to the VIDEO 2 IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or HDD (see page 33).

The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.

With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.

To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via

, point the remote controller at the AV receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 55).

To control an Onkyo component that’s not connected

via , or another manufacturer’s component, point the remote controller at the component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 54).

Recording

Can’t record

On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.

To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT, or VIDEO 1 IN to VIDEO 1 OUT).

When the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, recording is not possible because no video signals are output. Select another listening mode.

Others

The sound changes when I connect my head- phones

When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono, Direct, or Pure Audio (not North American model).

The display doesn’t work

The display is turned off when the Pure Audio (not North American model) listening mode is selected.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source

Use the “Multiplex” setting on the “Audio Adjust” menu to select Main or Sub (page 48).

The functions don’t work

To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the compo- nent and AV receiver, even if they are connected digi- tally (page 31).
