  If your Yamaha Receiver fails to turn on or enters standby mode shortly after being powered on, consider these potential causes: * Ensure the power cord is fully connected. * Verify the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is completely set to either the left or right position while the unit is in standby mode. * Check speaker wire connections for any shorts that may have activated the protection circuitry. Make sure each wire only touches its respective connection. * If the unit experienced a strong electric shock, place the unit in standby mode, disconnect the power cord for 30 seconds, reconnect it, and then try using it normally.
