Symptoms Remedies
The maximum volume available
(shown in the front panel display) is
lower than the +12dB maximum. Check that the Volume Limit is set to OFF (see Volume Setup on page 105 ).
The channel level setting may be over 0.0dB.
Certain listening modes or
HOME MENU items cannot be
selected. When Operation Mode is set to Basic, the Pioneer-recommended settings are made and
not all of the functions can be used. To use all of the functions without restrictions, set
Operation Mode to Expert (see
Operation Mode Setup on page 48 ).
Some functions cannot be selected, depending on the input signal and listening mode.
The volume level drops automati-
cally. The temperature within the unit has exceeded the allowable value. Try moving the unit for
better ventilation (see
Installing the receiver on page 9 ).
Volume seems different when input
is switched. Set the Channel Level setting to ALL, then adjust the volume of the respective input
sources (see
Input Volume Absorber on page 51 ).
ADAPTER PORT terminal
Symptoms Remedies
The Bluetooth wireless technology
device cannot be connected or oper-
ated. Sound from the Bluetooth wire-
less technology device is not emitted
or the sound is interrupted. Check that no object that emits electromagnetic waves in the 2.4 GHz band (microwave
oven, wireless LAN device or Bluetooth wireless technology apparatus) is near the unit. If
such an object is near the unit, set the unit far from it. Or, stop using the object emitting
the electromagnetic waves.
Check that the Bluetooth wireless technology device is not too far from the unit and that
obstructions are not set between the Bluetooth wireless technology device and the unit.
Set the Bluetooth wireless technology device and the unit so that the distance between
them is less than about 10 m and no obstructions exist between them.
Check that the Bluetooth ADAPTER and the ADAPTER PORT of the unit are correctly
connected.
The Bluetooth wireless technology device may not be set to the communication mode
supporting the Bluetooth wireless technology. Check the setting of the Bluetooth wireless
technology device.
Check that pairing is correct. The pairing setting was deleted from this unit or the Blue-
tooth wireless technology device. Reset the pairing.
Check that the profile is correct. Use a Bluetooth wireless technology device that supports
A2DP profile and AVRCP profile.
The Air Jam function cannot be
used. Disconnect the iPod from this receiver (see Air Jam on page 58 ).
Video
Symptoms Remedies
No image is output when an input is
selected. Check the video connections of the source component.
For HDMI, or when V.CONV is set to OFF and a TV and another component are con-
nected with different cords (in
Setting the Video options on page 78 ), you must connect
your TV to this receiver using the same type of video cable as you used to connect your
video component. For the component video input, however, signals are only output from
the HDMI OUT 1 or HDMI OUT 2 terminal, so when using the component video input,
set V.CONV to ON.
Make sure the input assignment is correct for components connected using component
video or HDMI cables (see
The Input Setup menu on page 47 ).
Check the video output settings of the source component.
Check that the video input you selected on your TV is correct.
Some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not be con-
verted. If adjusting this receiver’s Resolution setting (in
Setting the Video options on page
78 ) and/or the resolution settings on your component or display doesn’t work, try switch-
ing V.CONV (in Setting the Video options on page 78 ) to OFF.
When the device is connected using an HDMI OUT terminal, press the remote control’s
HDMI OUT button to check the HDMI OUT output setting. For OUT 3, also check the
MAIN/HDZONE setting at ZONE Setup.
Can’t record video. Check that the source is not copy-protected.
The video converter is not available when making recordings. Check that the same type
of video cable is used for connecting both the recorder and the video source (the one you
want to record) to this receiver.
Noisy, intermittent, or distorted
picture. Sometimes a video deck may output a noisy video signal (during scanning, for example),
or the video quality may just be poor (with some video game units, for example). The
picture quality may also depend on the settings, etc. of your display device. Switch off
the video converter and reconnect the source and display device using the same type of
connection (component or composite), then start playback again.
Video signals are not output from the
component terminal. When a monitor only compatible with resolutions of 480i is connected to the component
terminal and another monitor is connected to the HDMI terminal, the video signals may
not be output to the monitor connected to the component terminal. If this happens, do
the following:
— Turn off the power of the monitor connected to the HDMI terminal.
— Change the VIDEO PARAMETER menu RES setting (see
Setting the Video options on
page 78 ).
— Video signals from the HDMI terminal cannot be output to the component terminals.
Input the video signals from the player or other source to the composite or component
terminals. When using the component terminal, assign it at Input Setup (see
The Input
Setup menu on page 47 ).
The picture’s movement is unnatural. When Resolution under VIDEO PARAMETER is set to 1080/24p, the picture may not be
displayed properly for some source materials. In this case, set the resolution to some-
thing other than 1080/24p (
page 78 ).
