Remedy

No  sound  or  only  a  very
low-level  sound  is  heard.

Distorted  sound.

1.Check  that  the  speakers  and  components  are  connected

securely  and  correctly,  make  sure  the  stripped  end  of  each
speaker  wires does  not touch  each other  to avoid  short-circuit
of  the  speaker  wires  (see  Page  8,  9).

2.Make  sure  your  source  (DVD  or  other)  is  plugged  in  and

operating.  Also  check  that  component

s  booklet,  maybe  you

need  adjust  that  component.

3.Check  and  make  sure  your  DVD

s  sound  output  is  set  to

analog.  For  some  DVDs,  if  the  sound  output  is  not  set  to
analog,  the audio  cables may  not be  active and  there will  be
no  sound  output.

4.Make  sure  that  you  have  selected  the  correct  source  on  the

system  (DVD  or  MP3).

5.Adjust  the  set

s  volume  settings  on  the  front   of  the  HOME

THEATER  or  on  the  remote,  also  adjust  the  volume  of  the
input  source.

6.Ensure the MUTE button is not pressed on the HOME THEATER

remote  (If  yes,  press  the MUTE  button  again).

7.The  audio  or speaker  connecting wires  are  damaged.  Replace

them  with  new  ones.

The  REMOTE  CONTROL
unit  does  not  work.

1.Check  if  the  batteries  are  installed  with  the  correct  polarities

( + and - ).

2.If  the  batteries  are  weak  or  dead,  replace  them  with  new

ones  (size 

AAA

).

3.Point the remote control unit at a distance of less than 20 feet

from  the  main  unit  of  the  HOME  THEATER  system.

4.Remove  any  obstacles  between  the  remote  control  unit  and

remote  control  sensor.

5.If the battery terminals are dirty or corroded, clean them with

sandpaper.

The left and right sounds are
unbalanced or  reversed.

Check  that  the  speakers  and  components  are  connected  cor-
rectly  and  securely.

Press the POWER button on the back of the MAIN SET to turn
the  set  ON.  Then  press  the  ON/STANDBY  button  on  the  main
set  or  on  the  REMOTE.  The  HOME  THEATER  may  not  be
operating  properly  due  to  lightning,  static  electricity,  or  some
other  external  factors.  Reset  the  player  by  disconnecting  the
power  plug  and  then  re-connecting  it  before  calling  customer
service.  Also  check  the  Fuse.  See  page  16.

No  buttons  operate  (on  the
main set and / or the REMOTE
CONTROL  unit).

Loud  hum  or noise  is  heard.

1.Check  that  the  speakers  and  components  are  connected

securely.

2.Insert all wires firmly, follow the setup pages starting on Page 8.

Loud hum usually means a plug is not fully seated into the jack.

The  system  does  not
operate  properly.

Double  check  if  input  &  output  jacks  were  inserted  properly.
Also  ask  a  friend  to  help  you  before  calling  customer  service.
