What to do if my JVC Home Theater System is not working correctly?
If the system isn't working correctly, it could be due to interference from lightning or electronic noise. Try switching the power off, then disconnect and reconnect the power plug.

In this case, switch the power off and let the system sit for a few hours before turning it back on.
Why can't I play a disc on my JVC TH-A55?
There are a few reasons why a disc might not play. First, check if the center unit’s and disc’s Region Code numbers are compatible; if not, replace the disc. Also, Parental Lock may be enabled; enter the password to change the Parental Lock level. If you are trying to play MP3 files, make sure that MP3 files have the file extension in their file names. If you are trying to play JPEG files, make sure that JPEG files have the correct file extension in their file names. If no MP3 or JPEG files are recorded to the disc, replace the disc.
