Troubleshooting

Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is
something wrong with this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in
another component. Investigate the other components and electrical appliances being used. If the
trouble cannot be rectified even after exercising the checks listed below, ask your nearest Pioneer
authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.
• If the unit does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity
disconnect the power plug from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating
conditions.

Remedy
• Connect the power plug to the wall outlet.
• Disconnect the power plug from the outlet, and insert again.
• Make sure the power source is the right voltage for the AC inlet.
• If the speaker cables aren't connected properly, the system has a safety
feature that shuts the power off automatically. Check the speaker wires to
make sure they're connected properly. If there appears to be nothing
wrong, try switching the power back on after the timer indicator has been
blinking for a minute or so.
• If you can't seem to switch the power back on after the timer indicator
has been blinking for over a minute, the unit may be malfunctioning. Take
it to your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer to carry
out repair work.
• If you're using the LINE input, make sure the component is connected
correctly (see Connecting auxiliary components on page 12).
• Press MUTE on the remote control to turn muting off.
• Adjust the volume.
• Make sure the TV is connected correctly (see Connecting to your TV on
page 11).
• Replace the batteries (see Loading the batteries on page 6).
• Operate within 23 feet (7 m), 30° of the remote sensor on the front panel
(see Range of the remote control unit on page 6).
• Remove the obstacle or operate from another position.
• Avoid exposing the remote sensor on the front panel to direct light.
• You are only using one microphone and it's plugged into the MIC (SUB)
jack. The MIC (SUB) jack can only be used if there is also a microphone
plugged into the MIC (MAIN) jack.
• Adjust the MIC VOL.
• The mic is pointing toward the speakers. Keep the mic pointed away
from the speakers.
