Ensure the plug is fully inserted into the wall socket and is switched on.

Check fuse in the mains plug or adaptor.

Check the power is on at the front of the unit.

There is no sound

Check the correct input is selected.

Check that the speakers are connected correctly.

If using the tuner, check aerial connections and an available station is
selected.

Check the unit is not in mute mode.

Check the Speaker A/B configuration matches your speakers.

The sound is distorted

Check aerial connections and placements.

Check speaker connections.

There is a hum coming from the speaker

Ensure that all cable connections are secure, particularly ground/shield
connections. For turntables.

There is unwanted background noise and interference

Move the unit away from other electrical equipment that is likely to cause
interference.

Re-orientate the aerial.

Ensure that all cable connections are secure, particularly ground/shield
connections for turntables.

The remote handset will not function

Check that the batteries have not expired.

Ensure that nothing is blocking the remote sensor.

Over temperature protection

The unit has an over temperature and shutdown protection. If the unit is
continuously used for a long period and over heats, the unit will shut
down. 

Leave the unit ‘ON’ for 10 minutes to cool down

, then turn the unit

off and on to continue listening. 

If the problem persists, then the unit is being over driven. Reduce the
volume level, and ensure the unit is in an open ventilated area to resolve
the problem.

Use of two pairs of speakers which are less than 8 Ohms can cause
overloading and is not recommended.
