Troubleshooting—Continued

Recording

Can’t record

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

•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV control- ler, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).

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

Zone 2/Zone 3

There’s no sound

•Only components connected to analog inputs can be played in Zone 2 and Zone 3.

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.

The speaker volume cannot be set as required

•When the Automatic Speaker Setup function is used, or the volume is adjusted on the onscreen setup menus, the maximum possible volume setting may change.

The speaker distance cannot be set as required

•In some cases, corrected values suitable for home the- ater use may be set automatically.

The display doesn’t work

•The display is turned off when the Pure Audio listen- ing mode is selected.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source

•On the “Audio Adjust” menu, change the “Multiplex” setting to “Main” or “Sub” (page 98).

The u functions don’t work

•To use u, you must make an uconnection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the compo- nent and AV controller, even if they are connected dig- itally (page 44).

•While Zone 2 or Zone 3 is selected, the ufunctions don’t work.

The functions Auto Power On/Standby and Direct Change don’t work for components con- nected via u

• These functions don’t work when Zone 2 is turned on.

When performing “Automatic Speaker Setup”, the measurement fails showing the message “Ambient noise is too high”.

•This can be caused by any malfunction in your speaker unit. Check if the unit produces normal sounds.

The AV controller contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded cor- rectly.

For North American model, set the AV controller to Standby before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet. For other models, set the AV controller to Standby and the POWER switch to OFF before discon- necting the power cord.
