Troubleshooting

Problems may be caused by any component connected to this unit. Please check the table below, cross-referenc-

ing the instruction manuals for the other components.

Power

The power to the system is not turned on.

•Make sure that the power cable is plugged into the AC outlet.

•Unplug the power cable from the AC outlet, wait for 10 seconds or more, then plug the cable in again.

The power is turned off during the operation.

•If the SLEEP indicator is lit on the display, the Sleep timer is functioning. Cancel the Sleep timer.

(See page 62.)

•The DVD receiver enters Standby mode after the timer playback or recording is complete. (See page 65.)

•If the STANDBY indicator is blinking on and off, the built-in protection circuit is activated. Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires.

The DVD receiver turns itself on unexpectedly.

•The ACCUCLOCK function is updating the clock. This is not a malfunction. You can turn off ACCU- CLOCK. (See page 25.)

Audio

The sound is not heard.

•The DVD receiver uses a rotating unit whose precision instrument generates faint hissing sound while read- ing a disc during playing back or searching a track; you may hear it in a silent environment.

Sound breaks off due to vibration.

•The DVD receiver is designed for use as stationary type; place it in a location with limited influence of vibration.

Headphones makes noise or no sound.

•There may be a bad contact. Clean up the headphones terminal. For information on how to clean up, see the instruction manual attached to the headphones. Other- wise, verify the cord of the headphones which may be broken.

Sound Quality

•The sound quality becomes stable when 10 to 30 min- utes have passed after the power was turned on. Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with speaker cables may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do it.

Disc Playback

The disc won’t play or is automatically ejected after loading.

•Make sure the power cable is plugged into an AC out- let.

•Make sure that the speakers are connected correctly and the speaker cables’ core wires touch only the speaker connectors. (See page 18.)

•Check to make sure that the volume level is not set to minimum. (See page 26.)

•Make sure that the input source is properly selected.

•Check to make sure the muting function is not engaged.

If the MUTING indicator is flashing, the sound is muted. Cancel the muting function. (See page 27.)

•When the headphones are connected, the speakers do not output any sound. Disconnect the headphones. (See page 27.)

Sound is not good.

•Make sure that the speaker cords are connected cor- rectly. Check their polarity (+/–). (See page 18.)

•Connect the analog audio cables (RCA) firmly. (See page 19.)

•Sound quality could be affected by a strong magnetic field, such as a TV set. Locate such a device far from the DVD receiver.

•If you have any devices that emit high intensity radio waves near the DVD receiver, such as a cellular phone in operation (calling), noise may be generated.

•Make sure the disc is free from dirt and dust and is not damaged. (See page 9.)

•Make sure the disc is loaded with the label side face- up and aligned properly in the disc tray guide.

•Incompatible region number: If the region number on a DVD-Video disc does not match the number on the player, the disc cannot be used. (See page 74.)

•Condensation inside the player: Allow time for con- densation to evaporate. Avoid using the player near an air-conditioning unit.

•If the Parental Lock function is active, defeat it or change the level. (See page 71.)

The disc doesn’t play in the correct order

•Defeat special playback modes such as Repeat Play, Memory Playback, and Random Playback. (See pages 38-40.)

DVD-Audio playback stops.

•The disc may have been illegally copied.

Track numbers cannot be stored when setting MEMORY playback.

•Make sure that the disc has been loaded, and the track(s) you try to program are included on the disc.

It takes a long time until playback starts.

•It may take time for the DVD receiver to load and read a CD that contains many tracks.
