Possible causes for the Yamaha RX-395RDS receiver to stop playing music intermittently include:
1. Loose or Faulty Connections – Ensure all cables, including speaker and input connections, are properly secured and undamaged. 2. Overheating – If the receiver overheats, it may shut down temporarily. Ensure proper ventilation around the unit. 3. Speaker Impedance Issues – If the connected speakers have an impedance lower than recommended, the receiver may shut off to prevent damage. 4. Power Supply Problems – Unstable power or a faulty power cord can cause intermittent operation. 5. Signal Interference or Weak Input Source – If using radio or external devices, weak signals or faulty sources can cause dropouts. 6. Protection Mode Activation – The receiver may enter protection mode due to short circuits, excessive volume levels, or internal faults.
If the issue persists after checking these factors, disconnect the power cord and contact an authorized Yamaha service center.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following diagram. Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

In areas where RDS broadcasts cannot be received, the RDS broadcast functions do not operate. (The procedures from page 22 to page 26 are not necesssary.) RX-495RDS and RX-395RDS only RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system gradually being introduced by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal.

Changing the RDS modes When an RDS station is received, “PS”, “PTY”, “RT” and/or “CT” that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station light up on the display. By pressing the RDS MODE/FREQ button once or more, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown below.

Calling a program of your desired program type from among preset RDS stations (PTY SEEK) By designating a program type, the unit automatically searches all preset stations for an RDS station which broadcasts a program of that program type. * There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For details, refer to page 23. Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode.

Making this unit call a program of your desired program type automatically This function uses the EON (Enhanced Other Networks) data service on the RDS station network. By only selecting a desired program type (NEWS, INFO, AFFAIRS or SPORT), this unit automatically searches all preset RDS stations for a station that broadcasts a program of that program type in the background, and, if found, receives a program when its broadcast starts in place of the program now being received.
NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER Battery installation Battery replacement If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used closer to the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries with new ones. Notes Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement. Be sure the polarities are correct.
If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested. If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help.
