Troubleshooting

NO SOUND FROM THE UNIT
If the unit is not reproducing audio take the following steps:

Check the Preamplifier, processor or AV receiver is correctly connected to an
appropriate input on the Unit.

Check the source is playing, and not paused or muted. If it has adjustable
volume, check this is at the usual output level.

Check the preamplifier is set to select the correct source input. Adjust the source
selector for the correct source component.

Check the volume. Turn the unit volume on the preamplifier up to a point just
below the normal listening level. DO NOT turn the volume up to maximum in case
the sound begins to come through the speakers.

Check the unit is not in Standby. If the Display LED is varying in brightness, this
indicates the unit is in Standby mode. The Display LED should be full brightness
for operational mode.

SOUND IS QUIET OR DISTORTED
If the sound is quiet or distorted a rail fuse may have failed. While the unit is ON
check look through the ventilation slots in the top cover. A Red LED being on will
indicate a fuse failure. If the fuse has failed, see Fuse Protection in the Product
Features section of this manual.

NOTE: If the unit immediately or repeatedly suffers rail fuse failure, there may be a
major problem and you should contact your Plinius dealer.

POWER FAILURE
The unit may have suffered mains fuse failure or be in thermal overload protection mode.

Mains Fuse Failure: Check the mains fuse and replace if needed.

Thermal Overload Protection: Assess the temperature of the unit. If the unit seems
excessively hot, the Over Temperature Protection may have activated.

Refer to the Product Features section for further information.

NOTE: If the unit immediately or repeatedly suffers mains fuse failure or thermal
overload protection, there may be a major problem and you should contact your
Plinius dealer.
