PROTECTOR
The  receiver will automatically turn  off after  a few seconds.  Check the followings:
There may be an electrical  surge  or power  failure.  Unplug the AC power  cord  (mains  lead)  and then  plug in
the cord  again  after  30 minutes.
The  receiver is  covered and the ventilation  holes are  blocked.  Remove  the object covering the ventilation
holes of the receiver.
The  impedance of the connected speakers is  below the rated impedance range indicated  on the back panel
of the receiver. Reduce  the volume  level.
Unplug the AC power  cord  (mains  lead)  and let the receiver cool down for 30 minutes  while performing the
following troubleshooting:
Disconnect  all  of the  speakers and subwoofer.
Check that the  speaker  wires  are tightly twisted on both  ends.
Connect the  front  speaker  first, increase  the  volume level and operate  the  receiver  for  at least 30 minutes until it
completely  warms  up.  Then,  connect each  additional speaker  one by one and test each  additional speaker  until
you detect which  speaker  is causing the  protection  error.
After checking  the above  items and fixing any problems, plug in the AC power  cord  (mains  lead)  and turn  on
the receiver. If the problem persists,  consult your  nearest Sony dealer.
