Symptom Possible Reason
No picture
The desired source input was not selected at
the AV preamplifier.
The display unit (TV, etc.) was not switched on.
The video output of the AV preamplifier was
not connected to the display unit (TV, etc.).
The signal cable between the preamplifier
and the display unit (TV, etc.) is defective or
the plug is loose.
The video cable was not connected to the
correct input terminal on the display unit.
The desired input channel was not selected
at the display unit.
The video input of the disply unit was not
configured correctly.
The AV preamplifier, display unit or source
unit is defective.
Bad-quality picture
The picture system setting (PAL, NTSC) of the
display unit was wrongly selected at the signal
source.
The picture mode (Progressive Scan or
Interlaced Scan) was wrongly selected on
the source unit.
The setup settings of the source unit or the
video display have been wrongly selected in
respect of the video signal properties
(e.g. aspect ratio).

Use the input selector buttons on the remote
control or the multifunction knob on the unit
to set the input channel to which the source
is connected.
Switch the display unit on.
If necessary, check and correct the plug

Correct the input selection.
Correct the settings of the display unit with
regard to the video input and the video
signal format used.
By playing in conjunction with other units,
check which system component has failed
and contact the relevant dealer.

Correct these settings.
Correct this at the display unit (TV, projector,
etc.) or the source.
Check and replace the batteries if necessary.
Try to point the remote control at the front of
the unit only when the sight-line is clear,
within a 7-metre distance and, if possible,
facing the unit.
Switch the unit on.

GLOSSARY

RCA
RCA is the American name for coaxial Cinch con-
nectors and sockets, originally the abbreviation for
"Radio Corporation of America", the name of a
United States company. Both the plug and cable
consist of a rod-shaped inner lead and a cylindri-
cal-shaped outer lead. This enables a mono audio
signal or a video signal to be transmitted.
Compared to the XLR plug connector, this type of
connection is also called "unbalanced signal con-
nection".
Dynamics
The volume difference between the quietest and the
loudest sounds possible in audio signals (without
distortion or transition to noise). Dolby-Digital and
DTS soundtracks allow very high dynamics and pro-
duce excellent cinema-like effects.

dB-Level
This is a way of describing any physical quantity; it
is a common measurement for signal voltages and
the volume. It is given in decibels (dB). Alternating
signal voltages below 1V (RMS) are described as
"line level" voltages, which are suitable as music
signals for amplifier inputs. Inputs on amplifiers
(mostly represented by RCA sockets), which are
designed for signals on the CD player, tape recor-
der, DVD player etc. are also referred to as "line
level inputs" or "high-level inputs". Thos signal
inputs must not be confused with inputs that accept
preamplified signals.
Input sensitivity
Term for the smallest average (RMS) input voltage
which causes the maximum output power at the
maximum volume setting on the amplifier.
Examples: 100 mV to 500 mV (Millivolts) on high
level inputs, 2 mV to 5 mV on the phono MM input
or 0.1 mV to 0.5 mV on the phono MC input.
