FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - SU-A700MK3 TECHNICS

Comment brancher des enceintes sur le SU-A700MK3 ?

Utilisez les borniers à vis à l’arrière. Connectez le fil rouge à la borne + et le fil noir à la borne −. Veillez à respecter l’impédance minimale de 4 ohms.

Quelle puissance max pour les enceintes ?

Le récepteur délivre jusqu’à 100 W RMS par canal sous 8 ohms. Choisissez des enceintes supportant au moins cette puissance.

Comment nettoyer l’appareil ?

Utilisez un chiffon doux et sec. N’utilisez jamais de solvants ou de produits abrasifs. Débranchez l’appareil avant tout nettoyage.

Puis-je brancher une platine vinyle ?

Oui, utilisez l’entrée Phono. Si votre platine est à cellule MM, réglez le sélecteur sur MM. Pour une cellule MC, sélectionnez MC (si disponible).

Que faire si l’appareil ne s’allume pas ?

Vérifiez le cordon d’alimentation et le fusible. Si le problème persiste, contactez un service agréé Technics.

Comment utiliser la fonction Loudness ?

Appuyez sur le bouton Loudness pour renforcer les graves et aigus à faible volume. Cela compense la sensibilité de l’oreille humaine.

Qu’est-ce que le filtre infra-basses ?

Le filtre infra-basses (Subsonic filter) élimine les fréquences très basses (en dessous de 20 Hz) qui peuvent endommager les enceintes. Activez-le lors de la lecture de vinyles.

Comment connecter un magnétophone ?

Utilisez les prises Tape 1 ou Tape 2. La sortie Tape permet l’enregistrement, tandis que l’entrée sert à la lecture.

Puis-je bi-câbler mes enceintes ?

Le SU-A700MK3 ne permet pas le bi-câblage direct. Utilisez des ponts si vos enceintes sont bi-câblables avec une seule paire de bornes.

Troubleshooting Guide

Before requesting service for this unit, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the problem and restore proper operation.

If you are in doubt about some of the check points, or if the remedies indicated in the chart do not solve the problem, refer to the directory of Authorized Service Centers (enclosed with this unit) to locate a convenient service center, or consult your Technics dealer for instructions.

Problem	Probable cause(s)	Suggested remedy
Problems noted at all times
No sound is heard when the power is switched ON.	The power cord plug is not completely inserted.	• Confirm that the power cord plug is connected completely.
	Connections to the speakers, etc. are incomplete or incorrect.	• Check to be sure that all connection wires are correctly connected
	The input selector setting is incorrect.	• Check to be sure that the selection of the desired sound source is made correctly.
	The speaker selector is set incorrectly.	• Set it to the correct position.
	The tape monitor function is on.(TAPE 1 or TAPE 2/DCC indicator is illuminated)	• When listening to a source other than a tape or DCC, press TAPE MONITOR so that the “SOURCE” indicator illuminates.
When listening to stereo sound, the sound lacks depth (i.e. thin bass, tinny sound).	One of the speakers is connected out of phase [(+)→(-), (-)→(+)].	• Reconnect the speakers maintaining proper polarity [i.e., (+)→(+), (-)→(-)].
When listening to stereo sound, the left and right sounds are reversed.	The left and right speaker connections, source connections, or graphic equalizer connections are reversed.	• Check all connections and correct them if necessary.
A low-pitched noise (“hum” or “buzz”) is heard.	The power cord or a fluorescent light, etc., is near the connection wires.	• Try separating this unit as far as possible from the electric appliance.
Sound is not heard from one of the speakers.	The speaker wires are disconnected.	• Check and correct the connections of the speaker wires.
	The balance control is set too far to one side.	• Set so that sounds are heard at the center, between the speakers.
Sound stops during a performance, or no sound is heard when the power is switched ON.	The protection circuitry has functioned because the positive and negative speaker connection wires are “shorted”, speakers with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of the amplifier are used, or DC voltage appears in the output, causing the protection circuitry to function.	• Turn the unit OFF, and, after determining and correcting the cause, turn the unit ON once again.• Use the speakers of the proper impedance rating.
