Operations Troubleshooting guide
To listen to music or view your favorite movies, follow the

components are already connected to the control amplifier or the
preamplifier.)
1. Lower the volume at the control amplifier or
preamplifier.
Lower the volume of the control amplifier or preamplifier to
the minimum so that when the M-282 is turned on, you do not
hear loud unwanted sounds.
2. Select the input on the control amplifier or
preamplifier.
Select the proper input on the control amplifier or
