ONKYO A9130 - Resetting the unit (this resets the unit settings to the default) - 1

Power

Cannot turn on the unit

  • Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it in again.

The unit turns off unexpectedly

  • The unit automatically enters standby mode when auto standby ( p20) is activated.
  • A speaker cable may have shorted and the protective circuit function may have been activated. Make sure bare

speaker wires are not touching each other or the back panel of the unit, then turn the unit on again. If this unit does not turn on, immediately unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and contact your dealer.

  • The protective circuit function may have been activated because the temperature of the unit rose abnormally. If this happens, then the power will continue to turn off after you have turned the unit on again. Make sure the unit has plenty of space for ventilation around it, wait for the unit to cool down sufficiently, and then try turning it on again.
  • When switched to power amplifier mode, if the volume of the connected pre-amplifier is low, auto standby ( p20) may function and the power may automatically switch to standby. If this happens, you may be able to fix it by increasing the volume on the pre-amplifier.

WARNING: If smoke, smell or abnormal noise is produced by the unit, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately and contact the dealer or customer support.

Audio

  • Confirm that the connection between the output jack on the device and the input jack on this unit is correct.
    Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.
  • If MUTING is active, press MUTING on the remote controller to cancel. MUTING is active when the indicator for the selected input source is blinking.
    While headphones are connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output from the speakers or subwoofer.

Audio performance

Audio performance will be at its best about 10 to 30 minutes after the integrated amplifier has been turned on and had time to warm up.
- The sound quality can be affected by strong magnetic fields, such as those from a TV. Try moving any such devices away from the integrated amplifier.
- If you have any devices that emit high-intensity radio waves near the integrated amplifier, such as a cellular phone that's being used to make a call, the integrated amplifier may output noise.
- Install the integrated amplifier on a sturdy rack or shelf. Position it so that its weight is evenly dispersed on its four insulators. Do not install the integrated amplifier in a place with vibration or an unstable location.

No sound from a connected playback device

  • Change the input selector on this unit to the position of the terminal to which the playback device is connected.
    Only PCM audio is supported for input through the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL/COAXIAL jacks. Set the audio output on the playback device to output PCM.

A speaker produces no sound

  • Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables (+/-) is correct, and that no bare wires are in contact with the metal part of speaker terminals.
    Make sure that the speaker cables have not shorted.

Make sure the speakers are connected correctly. ( 8)

Noise can be heard

  • Using cable ties to bundle analog audio cables, power cords, speaker cables, etc. may degrade the audio performance, Do not bundle cords.
  • An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

Headphone output is intermittent or there's no sound

  • The connection part may be dirty. Clean the headphones plug. See your headphones' instruction manual for cleaning information. Also, make sure that the headphones cable is not broken or damaged.

The RI function

The RI function isn't working properly

Make sure that the RI REMOTE CONTROL jacks are properly connected.
- A connection to the RI REMOTE CONTROL jack is not enough for the units to operate as a system. Connect the Digital cable or Analog audio cable properly. ( p11)

Remote Controller

  • Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity.
  • Install new batteries. Do not mix different types of batteries, or old and new batteries.
    Make sure that the unit is not subjected to direct sunshine or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Relocate if necessary.
  • If the unit is installed in a rack or cabinet with colored-glass doors or if the doors are closed, the remote controller may not work reliably.

Cannot switch the input source

  • If this unit is set to be used as a power amplifier, you will be unable to switch the input source or adjust the sound quality. Check the setting. ( p19)

Others

Strange noises can be heard from the unit

  • If you have connected another unit to the same wall outlet as this unit, this noise may be an effect from the other unit. If the symptoms improve by unplugging the power cord of the other unit, use different wall outlets for this unit and the other unit.
