Unit turns off automatically or goes into Standby mode. Technics
The most common reason for a Technics unit to turn off automatically or enter standby mode is the activation of the "Auto Off" feature. This energy-saving function powers down the unit after a period of inactivity, typically around 20 minutes, to conserve energy.
If your unit is shutting off unexpectedly, it's advisable to check whether the "Auto Off" feature is enabled. For more information on the Auto Off feature and other possible causes, select your specific Technics model from the drop-down list below or consult your model's Operating Manual.
