Refer to the table below if this unit does not function properly. If the instructions below do not help, or if the problem you are experiencing is not listed below, turn off the unit, disconnect the power plug, and contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center.
| Problem Cause Remedy | See page | ||
| Power does not turn on. | The power cable is not connected to the AC IN connector on the rear panel or is not plugged into an AC outlet. | Connect the power cable firmly. 21 | |
| The unit has been exposed to a strong external electric shock (such as lightning or strong static electricity). | Turn off the unit, disconnect the power plug from the AC outlet, wait for about 30 seconds, and then plug the unit in again. | — | |
| The ⏻ (Power) indicator on the front panel flashes. | The protection circuitry has been activated because of a short circuit, etc. | Make sure that the speaker wires are not touching each other or shorting out against the rear panel of the unit, and then turn on the power to the unit. | 18 |
| There is a problem with the internal circuitries of this unit. | Disconnect the power plug from the AC outlet and contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service. | — | |
| When the unit is powered on, the INPUT indicator flashes and the volume level decreases. | The protection circuitry has been activated because of a short circuit, etc. | Make sure that the speaker wires are not touching each other or shorting out against the rear panel of the unit, and then turn on the power to the unit. | 18 |
| No sound is heard. | Incorrect input or output cable connections. | Connect the cables properly. If the problem persists, the cables might be defective. | 16 |
| No appropriate input source has been selected. | Select an appropriate input source using the INPUT selector on the front panel (or one of the input selector keys on the remote control). | 8, 12 | |
| The SPEAKERS selector is set to OFF. | Set the SPEAKERS selector to the appropriate position. | 7 | |
| The speaker cables are not connected properly. | Make sure that the speaker cables are connected properly. | 18 | |
| The sound is suddenly muted. | The protection circuitry has been activated because of a short circuit, etc. | Make sure that the speaker wires are not touching each other or shorting out against the rear panel of the unit, and then turn on the power to the unit. | 18 |
| The volume level cannot be adjusted. | MAIN DIRECT is selected as the input source. | Adjust the volume level on the connected component.Alternatively, connect the external component to a pair of the input jacks other than the MAIN IN jacks, and then select the corresponding input source. | 8 |
| Only one channel speaker can be heard. | The playback component or speakers are not connected properly. | Make sure that they are connected properly. If the problem persists, the cables might be defective. | 16 |
| The volume level balance between the left and right speakers is not adjusted properly. | Adjust the volume level balance between the left and right speakers properly using the BALANCE control. | 8 | |
Appendix
| Problem Cause Remedy | See page | ||
| There is a lack of bass and no ambience. | The + and - wires are connected in reverse at the amplifier or the speakers. | Connect the speaker wires to the correct + and - phase. | 18 |
| A “humming” noise is heard. | Incorrect input or output cable connections. | Connect the cables properly. If the problem persists, the cables might be defective. | 16 |
| The turntable is not grounded to the GND terminal. | Connect the turntable to the GND terminal of this unit. | 16 | |
| Playback audio is distorted while you listen to a connected CD player or tape deck through headphones (that are connected to a CD player or tape deck). | The power to the unit is turned off. Turn on the power to the unit. 6 | ||
| The volume level of the vinyl record is too low. | The MM/MC switch on the rear panel is set incorrectly. | Set the MM/MC switch to the MM or MC position according to the type of magnetic cartridge of the turntable. | 10 |
| The remote control does not work or function properly. | The remote control has been used out of the operating range. | The remote control must be used within a maximum distance of 6 m and no more than 30 degrees off-axis from the remote control sensor on the front panel. | 14 |
| Direct sunlight or lighting (from an inverter type of fluorescent lamp, strobe light, etc.) is hitting the remote control sensor on the front panel. | Change the orientation of the lighting or reposition the unit. | — | |
| The batteries are weak. Replace all batteries. 14 | |||
