  If your Yamaha Amplifier is not turning on and the POWER indicator is not lit, first check that the power cable is firmly connected. If it still doesn't turn on, and you are using the remote control, ensure that you press the A switch on the front panel to ON. If the problem persists, disconnect the power cable and contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center. If an unusual odor or noise is generated from the unit, do not turn on the power, disconnect the power cable, and contact a service center for repair.
