If the clock readout is visible then the unit is receiving power but may not be turning on. Try

pressing the power button on front of the unit. If this does not work then try pressing the

power button on the remote. If there is no clock readout visible then check the circuit breaker

to ensure the circuit has power. If the unit is connected to a GFCI protected circuit then the

GFCI may need to be reset. If neither of these possible solutions worked then contact the

manufacturer or the place of purchase.

Try turning down the bass. If the bass level is flat (at 0) then you may need to turn down the

volume. Try turning the balance to the one side. If the bass is stronger with only one speaker

playing then the speakers are likely wired out of phase. Review the section on "Speaker

Connections" within this manual. The IW-SYS3 is not a high power device. It is designed for

background level sound. Higher efficiency speakers may be a possible solution.

Try installing new batteries in the remote. Direct or bright sunlight may be shining on the

sensor and disabling it.

the CD slot. Try inserting a disc to ensure that a disc is inside the unit. If neither of these work

The operation that you are trying to perform is not supported in the present mode.

In most cases this condition occurs when the IW-SYS3 is connected to a secondary device,

usually through the Auxilliary input or Preamp Output jacks. The problem is usually traceable

to a cable TV connection that is not properly grounded and is causing a ground loop. If

disconnection of the cable from your other equipment stops the hum then the Cable Television

company should be contacted to correct the issue. If they are unable to resolve the issue then

it may be necessary to place line isolation transformers between the IW-SYS3 and the other

equipment.

Contact the manufacturer or the place of purchase to order the missing parts.
