Audio
No sound or only a very low level of

• Check that all connecting cables are
inserted to their input/output jacks on
the receiver, speakers and the devices.
• Check that the receiver and all devices
are turned on.

• Try pressing the input button on the

SELECTOR on the receiver to select the
input to which you want to listen.
• The protective device on the receiver has
been activated. Turn off the receiver,
eliminate the short-circuit problem, and
turn on the power again.
There is severe humming or noise.
• Check that the speakers and device are
connected securely.
• Make sure that the connecting cables are
not near a transformer or motor.
• Move your audio device away from the
TV.
• If the plugs and jacks are dirty, wipe them
with a cloth slightly moistened with
alcohol.
No sound or only a very low level of
sound is heard from specific
speakers.
• Connect a pair of headphones to the
PHONES jack to verify that sound is
output from the headphones. If only one
channel is output from the headphones,
the device may not be connected to the
receiver correctly. Check that all of the
cables are fully inserted into the jacks on
both the receiver and the device.
If both channels are output from the
headphones, the speaker may not be
connected to the receiver correctly.
Check the connection of the speaker that
is not outputting any sound.
• Make sure you have connected to both
the L and R jacks of an analog device, as
analog devices require both L and R jack
connections. Use a stereo audio cable
(not supplied).
