Problem Check that...
ere are no lights on the unit
<
the power cord is plugged into the AVR400 and the mains socket it is
plugged into is switched on.
<
the power button is pressed in.
If a red LED is present, the AVR400 is in standby mode. Press any button on the
front panel or remote control.
e unit responds erratically
or not at all to the remote
control
<
there are fresh batteries in the remote control.
<
the front panel window is visible and you are pointing the remote control
towards it.
e front panel display is
blank
<
the display hasn’t been turned o. Press the DISPLAY button on the front
panel or remote control.

<
your viewing device is turned on and switched to display your AVR400. Test
by pressing the MENU button on the AVR400 or on the remote and look for
the main menu screen on your display device.
<
the correct video input is selected on the AVR400.
<
the “Video Source” has been set correctly in the “Input Cong.” menu
<
the video source is on, is operating normally, and is in ‘play’ mode if
appropriate.
<
you have the AVR400 in a video resolution that is compatible with the
connection you are using and with your display device. For example,
composite video is only capable of carrying 480i and 576i resolutions. Test
this by pressing and holding the OK key for more than two seconds to force
480i / 576i output resolutions.
ere are bright edges or
‘ghosts’ on the picture
<
the cables used for analogue video connections are designed to carry video
(i.e., they are 75 coaxial cables).
<
ensure the ‘sharpness’ control on your display device is switched o or set to
near minimum.
<
for HDMI connections, try using a shorter cable or alternatively a dierent
brand.

maximum input signal voltage) in the Input Cong. menu if an analogue
input is being used.
<
you have selected the correct size of speakers to suit your system in the setup
menu.
