Troubleshooting
SOLUTION
•
Check if AC-mains cable is plugged in and
power switched on
•
Set the VACATION switch to ON
•
Switch amplifier off via VACATION switch. Make
sure ventilation slots on top, side, and back of the
amplifier are not blocked. After amplifier has
cooled down, switch the amplifier on
•
Replace fuse

Consult dealer/installer
•
Check all connections both at the speakers and
at the amplifier

Switch the amplifier to VACATION mode, check
and replace cables if necessary
•
Reverse connections at the back of the suspect
amplifier output
•
Check connections to all speakers in the affected
zone/room
•
Switch off amplifier via VACATION switch and
remove one at a time a pair of speaker cables
from the amplifier, then switch the VACATION
switch to the ON position and restore audio
source. Continue this procedure until the OMC
LED does not turn on. Replace the shorted
speaker cable to the zone/room
•
Turn down the input level to the room/zone that
may be suspect
•
Too many speakers connected to one channel, or
incorrect speaker pad or matching transformer
impedance settings. Remove some speakers or
check speaker pad and/or documentation
supplied from the speaker pad manufacturer for
correct impedance settings
