Troubleshooting
Most difculties in audio systems are the result of incorrect connections, or
improper control settings. If you encounter problems, isolate the area of the
difculty, check the control settings, determine the cause of the fault and
make the necessary changes. If you are unable to get sound from the unit,
refer to the suggestions for the following conditions:
Power Indicator Is Not Illuminated
The Power Indicator and the basic items in the Display window should be
illuminated whenever the unit is plugged into the wall power outlet and the
Power button is pushed in. If it does not illuminate, test the power outlet with
another electrical device, such as a lamp. Be sure the power outlet being
used is not controlled by a switch that has been turned off.
Fuse Replacement
If another electrical device works when plugged into the power outlet, but
the Power Indicator still will not illuminate when the unit is plugged into
the wall outlet, it indicates that the internal power fuse may have blown.
If you believe this has happened, contact your authorized Rotel dealer to
get the fuse replaced.
No Sound
Check the signal source to see if it is functioning properly. Make sure the
cables from the signal source to the amplier inputs are connected properly.
Be sure the Input Source is set to the proper input. Check the wiring between
the amplier and the speakers.
