Troubleshooting—Continued

The Zone 2 speakers produce no sound

The Zone 2 speakers only output sources that are con- nected to an analog input. Check to see if the source is connected to an analog input.

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 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback

When the ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals are used, playback in the main room is reduced to 5.1-channels.

The volume cannot be set to +18 dB (99)

After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been used, or the volume level of each speaker has been adjusted (pages 52, 66), the maximum possible vol- ume setting be reduced.

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 61).

The multichannel DVD input doesn’t work

Check the multichannel DVD input connections (page 26).

To select the multichannel DVD input, press the [Multi CH] input selector button.

Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

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.

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit- stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen- ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent 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 3 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.

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.

If a video component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the COM- PONENT VIDEO OUT (page 23).

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

To watch a composite video or S-Video source on a TV that’s connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, select Video in the “Component Video Setup” on page 40.

The onscreen menus don’t appear

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

The picture is distorted

On non-North American models, specify the TV sys- tem used in your area in the “TV Format Setup” on page 43.

With some TVs and projectors, the onscreen setup menus may not appear when the Scan Mode setting is set to Non-Interlaced. In this case, select this setting again by using the AV receiver’s display, and select Interlaced (page 70).

The immediate display does not appear

The immediate display does not appear on a TV that’s connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.

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 45).

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.

Can’t select XM radio channels (North Ameri- can model only)

• Channels cannot be selected while the

indica-

tor is flashing, as tuning is in progress.
