If you experience any of the following

difficulties while using the system, use this

troubleshooting guide to help remedy the

problem before requesting repairs. Should any

problem persist, consult your nearest Sony

dealer.

Power

The power is not turned on.

• Check that the AC power cord (mains lead) is

connected securely.

The standby indicator flashes.

Immediately unplug the power cord and check the

following items.

• Are the + and – speaker cords short-circuited?

• Are you using only the specified speakers?

• Is anything blocking the ventilation holes on the

top of the system?

• Is the subwoofer connected incorrectly?

After checking the above items and fixing any

problems, connect the power cord again and turn on

the system. If the indicator still flashes, or if the

cause of the problem cannot be found even after

checking all the above items, consult your nearest

Sony dealer.

The POWER/ON LINE indicator does not turn

on.

• The + and – speaker cords are short-circuited. In

this case, disconnect the AC power cord (mains

lead) of the surround speaker (L) from the wall

outlet (mains), reconnect, and then turn the

surround speaker (L) on.

Picture

There is no picture.

• The video connecting cords are not connected

securely.

• The video connecting cords are damaged.

• The system is not connected to the correct TV

input jack (page 25).

• The video input on the TV is not set so that you

can view pictures from the system.

• You have set [COMPONENT OUT] in [SCREEN

SETUP] to [PROGRESSIVE] even though your

TV cannot accept the signal in progressive format.

In this case, set the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT/

SCAN SELECT switch on the rear panel of the

subwoofer to INTERLACE. Then set

[COMPONENT OUT] to [INTERLACE] after

you can see the TV screen correctly, and reset the

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT/SCAN SELECT

switch to SELECTABLE.

• You have set [COMPONENT OUT] in [SCREEN

SETUP] to [PROGRESSIVE] even though your

TV cannot accept the signal in progressive format.

In this case, return the setting to interlace format

(page 28).

• Even if your TV is compatible with progressive

format (480p) signals, the image may be affected

when you set [COMPONENT OUT] to

[PROGRESSIVE]. In this case, set

[COMPONENT OUT] to [INTERLACE]

(page 89).

• When [PROGRESSIVE] is selected in [SCREEN

SETUP], no signal is output from the MONITOR

OUTPUT or S VIDEO OUT jacks.

Picture noise appears.

• The disc is dirty or flawed.

• If the picture output from your system goes

through your VCR to get to your TV, the copy-

protection signal applied to some DVD programs

could affect picture quality. If you still experience

problems even when you connect your system

directly to your TV, try connecting your system to

your TV’s S video input (page 25).

Even though you set the aspect ratio in [TV

TYPE] of [SCREEN SETUP], the picture does

not fill the screen.

• The aspect ratio on the disc is fixed.

The picture is black and white.

• Depending on the TV, the picture on the screen

becomes black and white when you play a disc

recorded in the NTSC color system.

Sound

There is no sound.

• The speaker cord is not connected securely.

• Press MUTING on the remote if “Muting” is

displayed in the front panel display.

• The system is in pause mode or in Slow-motion

Play mode. Press H to return to normal play

mode.

• Fast forward or fast reverse is performed. Press

H to return to normal play mode.

• Check the speaker settings (pages 38, 92).
