The currently selected audio source (4)(18) is
giving no signal.
One of the audio settings of a connected
DVD player (analogue/digital) has not been
correctly selected.

ted to the selected input channel terminal of
the amplifier.

Countermeasure
Connect to a functioning socket using a suit-
able mains voltage.
Check the power cable. If necessary,
exchange it with a suitable mains cable and
push its plug firmly into wall socket and the
device's power connector.
Contact your dealer.
Switch on the source unit and begin play-

Correct the settings in the player's setup.
Correct the connection.
Set the amplifier to the input that your desired
source is connected to (4)(18).
Carefully increase the volume (5)(20).
Deactivate mute function ("MUTE" button
(17)).
Check and tighten the speaker cables at the
