• FACTORY DEFAULT: This sets the unit back to the original state as when
it left the factory. Press the + button on the front panel or the Right button
on the remote control to select <YES> then press the ENTER button on the
front panel or on the remote control.
NOTE:
All previously configured options will be erased and reset to
the factory default settings.
Troubleshooting
Most difficulties in audio systems are the result of incorrect connections,
or improper control settings. If you encounter problems, isolate the area
of the difficulty, check the control settings, determine the cause of the fault
and make the necessary changes. If you are unable to get sound from the
RC-1590MKII, refer to the suggestions for the following conditions:
Power Indicator Is Not Illuminated
The Power Indicator ring around the power button and the basic items in
the Display window should be illuminated whenever the RC-1590MKII is
plugged into the wall power outlet and the POWER switch is pushed in. If
it does not light, test the power outlet with another electrical device, such as
a lamp. Be sure the power outlet being used is not controlled by a switch
that has been turned off.
Fuse Replacement
If another electrical device works when plugged into the power outlet, but
the Power Indicator still will not light when the RC-1590MKII is plugged into
the wall outlet, it indicates that the internal power fuse may have blown.
If you believe this has happened, contact your authorized Rotel dealer to
get the fuse replaced.
No Sound
Check the signal source to see if it is functioning properly. Make sure the
cables from the signal source to the RC-1590MKII inputs are connected
properly. Check all the wiring between the RC-1590MKII and the power
amplifier, and the speakers.
