Troubleshooting—Continued

The disc will not play.

Make sure that the disc has been loaded on the disc tray correctly. The disc should be inserted with the playback side facing down.

Check to see if the disc’s surface is dirty.

If condensation is suspected, wait for about one hour after you turn on the power to the unit before playing the disc.

The CD-R/RW disc is nonstandard. See “Disc Notes” on page 12.

It takes a long time until playback starts.

It may take time for the CD receiver to load and read a CD that contains many tracks.

Tuner

Noise is heard during broadcast, or too much white noise is heard during an FM stereo broadcast. You cannot tune in the broadcast station using the Auto Preset function (for only FM stations). Or, the FM ST indicator does not light up during FM broadcast.

Change the location of the antenna. (See page 37.)

Locate the unit further from the TV or a computer.

Cars or airplanes can create noisy interference.

A broadcast radio signal may be weak if a concrete wall obstructs the signal path.

Try setting FM mode to Monaural. (See page 38.)

Noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller during AM reception.

If nothing can improve the reception, install an outdoor antenna. (See page 15.)

If power outage occurs or the power plug is disconnected:

Memory is normally retained for two weeks. If the programmed preset channels are lost, program them again.

The clock data is lost. Set the clock and timers again.

Radio frequency is not adjustable.

Press / to adjust radio frequency.

The RDS function does not work.

The station is not an RDS station.

Install an outdoor FM antenna. (See page 15.)

Change the position or direction of the outdoor antenna.

Move the antenna as far away as possible from fluorescent lamps. (See page 37.)

Remote Controller

The remote controller does not function correctly.

Make sure that the batteries have been installed in the correct direction (polarity +/–). (See page 5.)

Replace both batteries with new ones. (Do not mix different types of batteries or new and old batteries.)

The distance between the remote controller and the unit may be too great, or there may be an object between them.

The remote control sensor on the unit may be subjected to bright light (inverter fluorescent light or sunlight).

The unit is placed behind the tinted windows of an audio rack or entertainment center.

Connection with External Devices

Interoperability with other external Onkyo devices is not available.

Make sure that the cable and analog audio cables are connected correctly (See pages 17-20). Connecting only an

cable won’t work.

Specify the source name in the display for the external Onkyo device. (See page 20.)

If any Onkyo recording device is combined to allow MP3 dubbing on CD, recording will start without performing peak search when the CD DUBBING button is pressed on the connected recording device.

This is not a malfunction.
