Troubleshooting
Tuner
Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, the Auto Preset function doesn't preset all stations, or
the FM ST indicator doesn't light up when tuned to a stereo FM station.
• Check the antenna connections (see page 15).
• Change the position of the antenna (see page 15).
• Move the CD receiver away from a nearby TV or computer.
• Cars or airplanes can cause noisy interference.
• The radio signal will be weakened if it has to pass through a concrete wall before reaching the antenna.
• Switch to Mono mode and listen in mono. The FM ST indicator will go off (see page 26).
• If none of the above improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna (see page 15).
• When listening to an AM station, noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller.
If a power failure occurs or the power cable is disconnected.
• A brief power outage will not cause the contents of memory to be lost. However if the power cable is left disconnected
for an extended period of time, only the clock settings (including the timer) will be reset. Please make these settings
again as necessary (see pages 26 and 27).
Can't adjust the frequency of the radio.
• Use the remote controller's TUNING []/[] buttons to change the frequency of the radio (see page 26).
Remote Controller
The remote controller doesn't work properly.
• Replace the battery with a new one.
• The remote controller is too far away from the CD receiver, or there's an obstacle between them (see page 12).
• The CD receiver's remote control sensor is being subjected to bright light (inverter-type fluorescent light or sunlight).
• The CD receiver is located behind the tinted glass doors of an audio rack or cabinet.
External Components
No sound is heard from your turntable.
• Make sure the turntable has a built-in phono equalizer. If the turntable doesn't have a phono equalizer built-in, you
must provide one.
Timer
The timer doesn't work.
• Make sure the clock has been set correctly (see page 28).
• Timed operation will fail if the CD receiver is on at the specified On time, so make sure it's set to Standby (see
page 29).
• If you press the [TIMER] button while a timed operation is in progress, the timer will be cancelled.
• The volume setting for timer playback will be the volume that was set before the CD receiver entered standby mode.
Set the appropriate volume beforehand.
• If a power failure occurs and the clock stops, the timer will also be reset. Reset the clock, and then make timer settings.
Clock
The display indicates "- - : - -" when you press the [CLOCK CALL] button.
• A power failure has occurred, and the clock has stopped. Set the clock again (see page 28).
