      If your Yamaha Receiver fails to turn on or enters standby mode shortly after being powered on: * Ensure the power cable is firmly connected. * Verify the impedance setting matches your speakers. * Check speaker wire connections for security and ensure no wires are touching other than their respective connections, as the protection circuitry may be activated. * If the unit has been exposed to a strong electric shock, put it in standby mode, disconnect the power cable, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect and use normally.
