Problem solving
If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below. If you are unable to
remedy a problem by following these hints, contact the helpline
(see ‘Need help?’) or consult your dealer.
Never try to open the set yourself as this will void the guarantee.
First, check all cables to ensure that they are connected correctly.
