Receiver Turns Itself On!

Recently, my TX-8222 began turning itself on -- always set to "Phono." Also, while I am listening to the radio, it changes over to "Phono."

To reset the receiver to its factory defaults, turn it

on and, while holding down the [LINE 2] button,

press the [STANDBY/ON] button.

“Clear” will appear on the display and the receiver

will enter Standby mode.
