Hi,

we have had a powercut yesterday and when the power came back our beosound 4 went to standby instead of asking for the passcode. Now the device cannot be switched on again - neither on the device itself nor with a remote control. We tried unplugging it again for a couple of minutes but that didn't help either?

Any advice is highly appreciated!

Thanks!

A Very Warm Welcome to Beoworld.

You say the unit is in standby, but is the Standby light flashing or on all the time ?

The glass slides up but the display does not come on, nor does the cd, radio or mem work.

Just a wild idea - leave it off the mains for an hour and plug it in some where else ...

Does it respond to an A option instruction. Does the standby led flash once.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Hi Buddy, the standby light does not flash at all. It comes on as soon as i plug in the device and it stays on. What is an a option? It doesnt show the clock nor does it respond to a mem.
