Troubleshooting
Before starting the procedure
Problems may be solved by simply turning the power on/
off or disconnecting/connecting the power cord, which is
easier than working on the connection, setting and operating
procedure. Try the simple measures on both the unit and the
connected device. If the problem is that the video or audio
is not output or the HDMI linked operation does not work,
disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable may solve it. When
reconnecting, be careful not to wind the HDMI cable since if
wound the HDMI cable may not fit well. After reconnecting,
turn off and on the unit and the connected device.
Resetting the unit
Resetting the unit to the status at the time of shipment may
solve the problem. If the measures above do not solve the
problem, reset the unit with the following procedure. If you
reset the unit status, your preferences will be reset to the
defaults. Note them down before starting reset.

step 2 must be performed with this button pressed down)
