Troubleshooting; Power Indicator Is Not Lit; Fuse Replacement; No Sound - Rotel RC-03 Owner's Manual

Troubleshooting

Most difficulties in audio systems are the re-
sult of incorrect connections, or improper
control settings. If you encounter problems, iso-
late the area of the difficulty, check the con-
trol settings, determine the cause of the fault
and make the necessary changes. If you are
unable to get sound from the RC-03 refer to
the suggestions for the following conditions:

Power Indicator Is Not Lit

The Power Indicator should be lit whenever
the RC-03 is plugged into the wall power outlet.
If it does not light, test the power outlet with
another electrical device, such as a lamp. Be
sure the power outlet being used is not con-
trolled 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
of the RC-03 does not light when plugged into
the same outlet and the Power Switch is pushed
in, 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 sig-
nal source to the RC-03 inputs are connected
properly. Be sure the Function Control and
Monitor Control are properly set. Check the
wiring between the RC-03 and the power
amplifier. Be sure the power amplifier is on
and the speakers are properly connected. If
the power amplifier has level controls be sure
they are set properly.
