Speaker Precautions

Placement

• The speaker cabinets are made out of wood and are therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put them in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidiﬁer, bathroom, or kitchen.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.

• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, ﬂat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.

• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.

• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD player or DVD player otherwise lower the unit’s output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-540F and SKC-540C feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations, however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic ﬁeld, thereby removing any discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the speciﬁed input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the speciﬁed rating, excessive current may ﬂow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, electronic musical instrument, and so on.

Ampliﬁer oscillation.

Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or disconnecting audio cables (Always turn off your ampliﬁer before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

Microphone feedback.

Enjoying Home Theater

Speaker Sets A and B

You can use two sets of speakers with the AV receiver:

Speaker set A

*While speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to 5.1-channel playback.

Speaker set B

*Only analog input sources are output by speaker set B.

AV receiver

SPEAKERS

Front left and right speakers (SKF-540F)

These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward.

Center speaker (SKC-540C)

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

(included speakers) should be used in your main listening room for up to 7.1-channel playback.

(not included) can be used in another room and offers 2-channel stereo playback.

Surround back left and right speakers (SKB-540)

These speakers further enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.

* While speaker set B is on, these

speakers output no sound.

Subwoofer (SKW-540)

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (LowFrequency Effects) channel. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the wall, as shown.

Speaker Set B: Sub Room

1/3 wall length

Surround left and right speakers (SKM-540S)

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of

8 ohms or higher

impedance, and use the ampliﬁer at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.

• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.

• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.

. If you use speakers with a lower

Connecting Speaker Set A

The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals and speaker’s positive (+) terminals are color-coded for ease of identiﬁcation. (The negative (–) speaker terminals are all black.) Match the color of each cable to the corresponding speaker terminal.

On the AV receiver, unscrew the terminal. Fully

insert the bare wires. Make sure that the bare wire is touching the inside of the pole. Screw the terminal tight.

On the speakers, while pressing

the terminal lever, insert the wire into the hole, and then release the lever.

Using the supplied RCA cable, connect the AV

Other Models

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Use thumbtacks or something similar to

ﬁx the FM antenna into position.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Caution:

Be careful that you don’t injure yourself

when using thumbtacks.

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 21).

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 21).

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

FM 75

Notes:

• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

•For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

•For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

■

Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Outdoor antenna

Insulated antenna cable

AM loop antenna

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed horizontally outside, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

• Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).

•To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.

Component video separates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (PR, PB), providing the best picture quality. (Some TV manufacturers label their component video jacks slightly differently.)

S-Video separates the luminance and color signals

and provides better picture quality than composite video.

Composite video is commonly used on TVs, VCRs,

and other video equipment. Use only dedicated composite video cables.

Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide.

For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.

Video Connection Formats

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats, so only outputs of the same format as the input will output the signal.

Audio Connection Formats

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats.

For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog TAPE OUT, so if you want to record from, for example, your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital input, you must also connect it to the analog CD IN.

Connecting the Power Cord of Another Component

The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for connecting the power cord of another AV component. The other component’s power switch can then be left in the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV receiver is set to On or Standby.

Caution:

• Make sure that the capacity of the component that you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed the stated capacity (e.g., 100 W).

Notes:

• Onkyo components connected via should be connected directly to a wall outlet, not the AV receiver’s AC OUTLET.

• The socket type and capacity depends on the country in which you purchased the AV receiver.

Connecting Onkyo Components

Step 1: Make sure that each Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable (con-

nection in the hookup examples) (see pages 24 to 32).

Step 2: Make the connection. Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or HDD component, change the input Display (see page 35).

With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

■

Auto Power On/Standby

When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components connected via will also go on Standby. This function will not work on components connected to an AC OUTLET on the AV receiver.

■

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to press the [MULTI CH] button to hear all channels (see page 37), as the Direct Change function only selects the FRONT DVD IN jacks.

■

Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other -capable Onkyo components, pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (page 59).

Notes:

• Use only cables for connections. cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).

• Some components have two jacks. You can connect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for connecting additional -capable components.

Smooth Operation in a Few Easy Steps

To ensure smooth operation, here’s a few easy steps to help you conﬁgure the AV receiver before you use it for the very ﬁrst time. These settings only need to be made once.

■ Have you connected a component to a digital audio input?

If you have, see “Assigning Digital Inputs to Input Sources” on page 35.

■ Have you connected an Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or next generation HDD-compatible component?

If you have, see “Changing the Input Display” on page 35.

Testing the speakers

To test that all of the speakers are working properly, press the remote controller’s [TEST TONE] button. The test tone will be output by each speaker in turn and the name of each speaker will appear on the display. To turn off the test tone, press the [TEST TONE] button again.

• If the test tone is not produced by a speaker, or it’s produced by a speaker other than that shown on the display, you may have wired the speakers incorrectly and you should check your connections (see page 19).

•Testing cannot be performed while speaker set B is on or a pair of headphones is connected.

To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control, or the remote controller’s [VOL] button.

The volume can be set to MIN, 1 through 79, or MAX. Since the AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment, it has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.

Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.

Select a suitable listening mode and enjoy!

Dolby Digital

Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most common digital surroundsound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

Dolby Digital EX DTS+Dolby EX

These modes expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. They’re especially suited to Dolby Digital EX soundtracks that include a matrix-encoded surround back channel. The additional channel adds an extra dimension and provides an enveloping surround sound experience, perfect for rotating and ﬂy-by sound effects. Use them with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital or DTS logo.

Dolby Digital+PLIIx Music DTS+PLIIx Music

These modes use the Pro Logic IIx Music mode to expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use them with Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 music sources (e.g., DVD and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts).

Dolby Digital+PLIIx Movie DTS+PLIIx Movie

These modes use the Pro Logic IIx Movie mode to expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for 7.1-channel playback. Use them with Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 movies (e.g., DVD and select digital TV broadcasts).

DTS

The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to 5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for high-ﬁdelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

DTS 96/24

This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a 96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit resolution, providing superior ﬁdelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS-ES Discrete

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks, which use a discrete surround back channel for true 6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360-degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.

Using the Listening Modes

—Continued

DTS-ES Matrix

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks, which use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.

DTS Neo:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for 6.1-channel playback. It uses six full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience that fully envelops the listener.

• Neo:6 Cinema

Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).

• Neo:6 Music

Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

Dolby Digital + Neo:6 DTS+Neo:6

This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS sources for

6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital or DTS logo and feature a 5.1-channel soundtrack.

Neural Surround

(North American models only)

Neural Surround represents the latest advancement in surround technology developed for music and is adopted by XM Satellite Radio for digital radio broadcast of surround recordings and live events in surround sound. Neural Surround employs psychoacoustic frequencydomain processing, which allows delivery of a more detailed sound stage, with superior channel separation and localization of audio elements. System playback is scalable from 5.1 to 7.1 multichannel surround playback.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for old movies and other mono sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono material.

Orchestra

Suitable for classical or operatic music, this mode emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the stereo image, and simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the impression of being right in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound ﬁeld with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire sound, and clarity to voices.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music, this mode ﬁlls the entire listening area with stereo sound from the front, surround, and surround back speakers.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you are within the listening room.

This setting determines which channel is output from a stereo multiplex source. Use it to select audio channels or languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV broadcasts, and so on.

Main:

The main channel is output (default).

Sub:

The sub channel is output.

M/S:

Both the main and sub channels are output.

■

Mono (2ch)

This setting determines which channel is output when the Mono listening mode is used with a stereo source.

L+R:

Both the left and right channels are output (default).

Only the left channel is output.

Only the right channel is output.

PLII and PLIIx Music Mode Settings

These settings apply to only 2-channel (stereo) sources.

■

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode.

On:

Panorama function on.

Off:

Panorama function off (default).

■

Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound ﬁeld forward or backward when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. The default value is 3. It can be adjusted from 0 to 6. Higher settings move the sound ﬁeld forward. Lower settings move it backward.

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much surround sound, move the sound ﬁeld forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround sound, move it backward.

adjusts the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7 (default value is 3).

DTS Neo:6 Music Mode Setting

■

Center Image

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel (stereo) sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5 (default value is 2). This setting has no effect if no center speaker is connected.

When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the sound is located centrally. This setting works well when the listening position is considerably off center. When set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenuated, maintaining the original stereo balance.

Dolby Digital EX Input Signal Setting

■

Dolby EX

This setting determines how Dolby Digital EX signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround back speakers are connected or speaker set B is on.

You can select Pro Logic IIx Movie, Pro Logic IIx Music, Dolby Digital, or Dolby Digital EX.

Multichannel Subwoofer Setting

■

SW Sens

On some DVD players, the signal from the multichannel subwoofer output is 15 dB higher than normal. You can change the subwoofer sensitivity to match your DVD player. Note that this setting only affects signals connected to the SUBWOOFER input jack of the multichannel DVD input.

You can select 0 dB (default), +5 dB, +10 dB, or +15 dB. If you ﬁnd that your subwoofer is too loud, try the

+10 dB or +15 dB setting.

■

Center Width

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center). This setting

Note:

Speakers that you set to No or None in the Speaker Conﬁguration (page 54) cannot be selected.

Press the [SETUP] button.

Setup closes.

Notes:

• The Center and Subwoofer distances can be set up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or less than the Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the Center and Subwoofer distances can be set between 15 and 25 ft. (4.5 and 7.5 m).

• The Surround and Surround Back distances can be set up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or 15 ft. (4.5 m) less than the Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the SurrRight, Surr Left, Surr Back R, and Surr Back L distances can be set between 5 and 25 ft. (1.5 and 7.5 m).

Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the 7.1ch Home Theater System, look for a solution in this section.

If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting your Onkyo dealer.

To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VIDEO 1] button, press the [STANDBY/ON] button. “Clear” will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.

VIDEO 1

VCR

STANDBY/ON

Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your radio presets and custom settings.

Power

Can’t turn on the AV receiver

• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall outlet properly.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it in again.

The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned on

• The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and leave the AV receiver with its power cord disconnected for 1 hour. After that, reconnect the power cord and set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet

• Make sure that the digital input source is selected properly (page 35). Press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button repeatedly.

• Make sure the speker set A or B is on (page 5).

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 22).

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with metal part of each speaker terminal (page 19)

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume. It can be set to MIN, 1 through 79, or MAX (page 36). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

• If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display, press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 44).

• While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers (page 45).

• Check the digital audio output settings on the connected device. On some games consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu.

• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp built-in, you must connect one between it and the AV receiver. If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a phono preamp.

• Specify the speaker distances and adjust the individual speaker levels (pages 52, 53).

• The input signal format is set to PCM or DTS. Set it to Auto (page 56).

Only the front speakers produce sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

Only the center speaker produces sound

• If you use the Pro Logic IIx Movie, Pro Logic IIx Music, or Pro Logic IIx Game listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is concentrated in the center speaker.

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

The surround speakers produce no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound (page 48).

• Depending on the source and current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

The center speaker produces no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 48).

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

The surround back speakers produce no sound

• While speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to

5.1-channel playback and the surround back speakers produce no sound.

Troubleshooting

—Continued

• The surround back speakers are not used with all listening modes. Select another listening mode (page 48).

• Not much sound may be produced by the surround back speakers with some sources.

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

The subwoofer produces no sound

• The level of the input signal was too low so the subwoofer entered Standby mode. Increase the subwoofer level slightly on the HT-R540.

• Make sure that the subwoofer’s [POWER] switch is set to ON (not North American models).

• The subwoofer’s OUTPUT LEVEL control is set at minimum. Turn it up.

• The subwoofer outputs no sound while only speaker set B is on. Turn on speaker set A.

• When you play source material that contains no information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

• Make sure the speakers are conﬁgured correctly (page 54).

Speaker set B produces no sound

• Speaker set B only outputs sources that are connected to an analog input. Make sure that the analog audio cables are connected properly.

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

• Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some games consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

Can’t get 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback

• While speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to

5.1-channel playback.

The volume cannot be set to 79

• When the volume level of each speaker has been adjusted (pages 45, 53), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.

Noise can be heard

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do it.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

• Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital (page 50).

The multichannel DVD input doesn’t work

• Check the multichannel DVD input connections (page 26).

•To select the multichannel DVD input, press the [MULTI CH] input selector button.

• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

• When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.

•With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

Video

There’s no picture

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 22).

• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.

• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so if a video source component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the component video output (page 23).

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

• While the Pure Audio listening mode (not North American model) is selected, the video circuits are turned off and the AV receiver outputs no video signals.

Troubleshooting

—Continued

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t appear

• Relocate your antenna.

•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.

• Listen to the station in mono (page 38).

• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.

•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.

• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.

• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 13).

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 13).

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode (page 14).

• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 58).

Can’t control other components

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode (page 14).

• If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or next generation HDD-compatible component to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or a DS-A1 Remote Interactive Dock to the VIDEO 2 IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or HDD (see page 35).

• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.

•With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.

•To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via

, point the remote controller at the AV receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (see page 59).

•To control an Onkyo component that’s not connected via , or another manufacturer’s component, point the remote controller at the component. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code ﬁrst (see page 58).

Recording

Can’t record

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.

•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT, or VIDEO 1 IN to VIDEO 1 OUT).

• When the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, recording is not possible because no video signals are output. Select another listening mode.

Others

The sound changes when I connect my headphones

• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono, Direct, or Pure Audio (not North American model).

The display doesn’t work

• The display is turned off when the Pure Audio (not North American model) listening mode is selected.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source

• Use the “Multiplex” setting on the “4. Audio Adjust” menu to select Main or Sub (page 51).

The functions don’t work

•To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally (page 33).

Troubleshooting

—Continued

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least ﬁve seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, set the AV receiver to Standby.

Memory Backup

The AV receiver uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the AV receiver must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system. Once it has been charged, the AV receiver will retain the settings for several weeks, although this depends on the environment and will be shorter in humid climates.

The following settings can be made for the S-Video and composite video inputs

You must use the buttons on the unit to make these settings.

1. While holding down the input selector button for the input source that you want to set, press the [SETUP] button.

2. Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ] buttons to select a setting (see below).

3. Use the Left and Right [ ]/[ ] buttons to change the setting:

4. Press the [SETUP] button when you’ve ﬁnished.

•

Video Attenuation

This setting can be made for the DVD, VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, or VIDEO 3 input. If you have a games console connected to an S-Video or composite video input, and the picture isn’t very clear, you can attenuate the gain.

Video ATT:0: Video ATT:2:

•

Outputting S-Video Sources from the Composite

(default). Gain is reduced by 2 dB.

Video Outputs

This setting can be made for the DVD, VIDEO 1, or VIDEO 2 input. With this setting, you can output S-Video input sources from the composite video outputs, useful if your TV doesn’t have any S-Video inputs.

Y/C Mix:Off:

S-Video input signals are output by

only S-Video outputs (default).

Y/C Mix:On:

S-Video input signals are output by

S-Video outputs and composite video outputs.
