Troubleshooting
If
you have any trouble using the
AV
receiver, look for a
solution
in this section.
• Check the volume. The
AV
receiver is designed for
home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range
for precise adjustment (page 39).
•
If
the MUTING indicator is shown
on
the display,
press the remote controller's [MUTING] ,button to
unmute the
AV
receiver (page 46).
• While a pair
of
headphones is connected to the
PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers
(page 45).
• 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 format from a menu.
•
If
yourturntable
doesn't
have a phono preamp built-in,
you must connect one between it and the
AV
receiver.
If
your turntable uses an
MC
cartridge, you must con-
nect an MC head amp, or an
MCtransformer
and a
phono preamp.
• Specify the speakerdistances and adjust the individual
speaker levels (pages 53, 54).
• The input signal format is set to
PCM
or
DTS. Set it to
Auto (page 57).
Only the front speakers produce sound?
• When the Stereo
or
Mono
listening mode is selected,
. only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 55).
Only the center speaker produces sound?
•
If
you use the Pro Logic II Movie
or
Pro Logic II
Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an
AM radio station or mono
TV
program, the sound is
concentrated in the center speaker.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 55).
The surround speakers produce no sound?
• When the Stereo
or
Mono listening mode is selected,
the surround speakers produce no sound (page 50).
• Depending on the source and current listening mode,
not much sound may
be
produced by the surround
speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 55).
The center speaker produces no sound?
• When the Stereo
or
Mono
listening
mode
is selected,
the center speaker produces no sound (page 50).
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 55).
