Troubleshooting

If you have problems with your system, look through this chart and see if you can solve the problem yourself before calling your dealer or TEAC service center.

General

No power

eCheck the connection to the AC power supply. Check and make sure the AC source is not a switched outlet and that, if it is, the switch is turned on. Make sure there is power to the AC outlet by plugging another item such as a lamp or fan into the outlet.

No sound from speakers.

eSelect the source by pressing the FUNCTION button. eCheck the connection to the speakers.

eAdjust the volume.

ePull out the headphone’s plug from the PHONES jack.

eIf the VOLUME level indicator is blinking, press the MUTING button.

The sound is noisy.

eThe unit is too close to a TV or similar appliances. Install the unit apart from them, or turn them off.

Remote control doesn’t work.

ePress the POWER switch to turn the unit on.

eWhen the battery has run out, put in a new one.

eUse remote control unit within the range (5 m) and point at the front panel.

eClear obstacles between the remote control unit and the main unit.

eIf a strong light is near the unit, turn it off.

CD Player

Cannot play.

eLoad a disc with the playback side facing away. eIf the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.

eA blank disc has been loaded. Load a prerecorded disc.

eDepending on the disc, etc. it may not be possible to play back CD-R/RW discs. Try again with another disc.

eYou cannot play back unfinalized CD-R/RW discs. Finalize such a disc in a CD recorder and try again.

Sound skips.

ePlace the unit on a stable place to avoid vibration and shock. eIf the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.

eDon’t use scratched, damaged or warped discs.

Tuner

Cannot listen to any station, or signal is too weak. eTune in the station properly.

eRotate the FM or AM antenna for the best reception position.

Though the broadcast is stereo, it sounds monaural. ePress the STEREO/MONO button.

If normal operation cannot be recovered, unplug the power cord from the outlet and plug it again.

If the power switch of the subwoofer turned off, the settings kept in memory (clock, preset stations, timer setting) will be erased.

Beware of condensation

When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.

Maintenance

If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or use diluted mild liquid soap. Never spray liquid directly on this unit. Apply your cleaner to your cleaning cloth and wipe gently. Be sure to remove any excess completely. Do not use thinner, benzene or alcohol as they may damage the surface of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to dry completely before using.
