Symptom
Cause
Remedy
The Auto Surround Setup
continually shows an error.
• The ambient noise level in the room is too
high.
• Keep the noise level in the room as low as possible
when using the Auto Surround Setup. If the noise cannot
be kept low enough, you will have to set up the surround
sound manually (page 57).
After using the Auto Surround
Setup, the subwoofer distance
setting is set further than the
actual measured distance.
• The low-pass filter found in subwoofers can
introduce a delay in the playback sound.
• This is not a malfunction. The Auto Surround Setup has
compensated for the delay caused by the filter.
After using the Auto Surround
Setup, the speaker size setting
(
LARGE
or
SMALL
) is incorrect.
• There was some inaudible low-frequency
noise in the room.
• The low-frequency noise could have been caused by an
air conditioner or motor. Switch off all appliances in the
room and rerun the Auto Surround Setup.
The display shows
KEY LOCK
ON
when you try to make
settings.
• Your Pioneer dealer has enabled the key
lock feature.
• Ask your Pioneer dealer to disable the key lock.
