• Select the correct i.LINK INPUT setting
(p.87).
• Connect the power plug to the wall
outlet.
• Disconnect the power plug from the
outlet, and insert again.
• Turn down the volume.
• When it’s convenient go to ACOUSTIC
CALIBRATION EQ (p.46–47) and lower the
63 Hz and 125 Hz equalizer levels using
MANUAL setting.

you to turn up the volume a little more.
(From the Standby mode, and while holding

• Disconnect the power plug from the
outlet, and insert again.
• Reinsert the speaker wires, making sure
there are no stray strands of wire and that
they are inserted fully.

for a minute. After that turn the amplifier back
on. If you have the same problem again call a
Pioneer-accredited repair center.
• Turn the amplifier off and allow it to cool
down with good ventilation. It is very likely
that you have a heat dispersal and
ventilation problem so please follow the
instructions on p.2 (“Installing the
Amplifier”) carefully.
Troubleshooting
Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is something wrong with
this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in another component. Investigate the other
components and electrical appliances being used. If the trouble cannot be rectified even after exercising the checks
listed below, ask your nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.

• Static electricity caused by dry air.
• The speaker wires are frayed or sticking
out of the jack, and are touching the back of
the amplifier or another set of wires.
