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.
• If the unit does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity disconnect
the power plug from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions.
Problem
The power does not turn on.
Power automatically switches
to standby without user action.
No sound is output when a
function is selected.
Can't operate the remote
control.
Considerable noise in radio
broadcasts.
Auto tuning does not pick up
some stations.
Remedy
• Disconnect the power plug from the outlet, and insert again.
• If the power shuts off automatically, take the unit to your nearest
Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer for servicing.
• When input is set to iPod, if no iPod is connected for one hour or
more, the unit's power automatically turns OFF.
• Make sure the component is connected correctly (refer to
Connecting auxiliary components on page 17).
• Replace the battery (refer to page 6).
• Operate within 7 m (23 ft.), 30° of the remote sensor on the front
panel (refer to page 7).
• Remove the obstacle or operate from another position.
• Avoid exposing the remote sensor on the front panel to direct light.
• Fully extend the FM wire antenna, position for best reception, and
secure to a wall. You may also connect an outdoor FM antenna.
• Turn off any other equipment that may be causing the noise or
move it away from the unit.
• The radio signal is weak. Auto tuning will only detect radio stations
with a good signal. For more sensitive tuning, connect an outdoor
antenna.
