Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using your A-1VL, look for a solution in the troubleshooting section. If you can’t resolve the

issue yourself, contact your Onkyo dealer.

Can’t turn on the A-1VL.

• Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet. (page 11)

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait ﬁve seconds or more, then plug the cable in again.

The power is turned off and the power indicator blinks in white.

• The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately and contact

your Onkyo dealer.

There’s no sound, or it’s very soft.

• When you use the A-1VL as a power ampliﬁer (when the DIRECT function is turned on), the sound from the component

connected to the preampliﬁer will be output. If you want to output the sound from a component connected to the A-1VL,

or when you use the A-1VL as a preampliﬁer, use the DIRECT button to turn off the DIRECT function.

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way. (page 9)

• Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all components are connected properly.

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct and that the bare wires are in contact with the metal part

of each speaker terminal. (page 9)

• Make sure that the input source is properly selected. (page 12)

• If the MUTE indicator blinks, press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to ummute the A-1VL. (page 12)

• To use a turntable with an MC-type cartridge requires a commercially available MC phono preamp. (page 10)

• Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.

Noise can be heard.

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio perfor-

mance, so do not bundle cables and cords together.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The remote controller doesn’t work.

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity. (page 8)

• Install new batteries. Don’t mix different types of batteries or old and new batteries. (page 8)

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the A-1VL, and that there’s no obstruction between the

remote controller and the A-1VL’s remote control sensor. (page 8)

• Make sure that the A-1VL is not subjected to direct sunshine or inverter-type ﬂorescent lights. Relocate if necessary.

(page 8)

• If the A-1VL is installed in a rack or cabinet with colored glass doors, the remote controller may not work reliably

when the doors are closed. (page 8)

Can’t record.

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected. The A-1VL is not equipped with digital input/output

terminals and can perform only analog recording. (page 13)

• The signal from the component connected to the MAIN IN terminal cannot be recorded.

Recording

The A-1VL contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare

situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to

lock up. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait

at least ﬁve seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings

caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material

will be recorded correctly.
