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 system does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity disconnect the plug from

the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions.

• If there is no sound or no multichannel sound from the DVR-230-AV DVD recorder, try setting the recorder’s audio-

related settings back to their defaults—see

The Initial Setup menu

on page 76.
