TROUBLESHOOTING

The RV-5 does not power on.

1.Make sure the rear panel power switch is set to the ON position.

2.Attempt to power on the RV-5 with the front panel Standby button and remote control ON button.

3.Examine the power cord to ensure a good connection between the rear panel AC input connector and the wall outlet.

4.Check the electrical circuit and breaker.

The remote control does not work.

1.Make sure that the remote control touch screen is in the “LEX”, “Zone 2”, or “Tuner” menu layers. The remote control is a universal control designed to operate all of the home theater equipment in your system. In order to control the RV-5, the remote control must be in the “LEX”, “Zone 2”, or “Tuner” menu layers.

2.Eliminate obstructions between the remote control and the front panel IR receiver. When the rear panel IR IN connector is not in use, the remote control must be in line of sight with the front panel IR receiver for proper operation. The remote control might also become unreliable if strong sunlight or fluorescent light is shining on the RV-5’s IR receiver.

3.Make sure the remote control batteries are correctly inserted with the proper polarity.

4.Replace the remote control batteries. When the batteries are low on power, the remote control enters a low-voltage condition that prevents it from operating the RV-5.

5.If using the optional RF-1 Receiver, ensure that it is properly connected to the RV-5 rear panel.

The RV-5 is powered on, but there is no audio.

1.Make sure that the source device is powered on, playing audio, and set to the right output connector.

2.Make sure the volume level is audible. Volume level can be adjusted with the front panel volume knob or the remote

control VOL and buttons.

3.Make sure the audio has not been muted. The message “MUTE ON” is displayed on the on-screen and front panel displays when audio has been muted in the Main Zone. In addition, the MUTE button on the front panel lights red when the Main Zone mute is active and green when the Zone 2 mute is active. If both Zones are muted, the Mute button lights amber. To deactivate mute, press the MUTE button or adjust the volume level.

4.Verify that all rear panel input and output connections are correct.

5.Check the INPUT SETUP menu DIG AUDIO and ANLG AUDIO parameters to ensure the appropriate audio connector is assigned to the selected input.

6.Verify that the incoming audio signal is compatible with the input chosen.

Note: The rear panel input connectors marked S/PDIF INPUTS (RCA & TOSLINK connectors) are not compatible with MP3 sources.

The Subwoofer(s) distorts frequently.

The likely cause for the subwoofer(s) to distort is either an incorrectly set output level or the subwoofer high-pass filter is set too low. Verify that the SUB/LFE LPF setting (subwoofer cross-over point) is set correctly. If correct, try setting the SUB HPF setting to a higher value to resolve the issue. Refer to Section 3: Setup for more information.
