Troubleshooting

If you have any problems with the deck, please check the following before calling for service. If the trouble persists, please consult your dealer or nearest TEAC service agent.

Problem

Remedy

 

 

No operations are possible.

The MD is dirty or damaged. If "Disc Error !" is display-

 

ed in this case, replace the MD with another disc.

 

 

Playback will not start.

Check if power is supplied.

 

 

 

"Blank Disc" is displayed if the MD contains no record-

 

ed data. "No Track !!" is displayed if no tracks have been

 

recorded on the disc. Replace the MD with a pre-

 

recorded MD.

 

 

 

When "UTOC Error !" is displayed, replace the MD with

 

another disc.

 

 

 

There may be condensation inside the deck. In this case,

 

eject the MD and leave the deck on for a few hours.

 

 

Recording will not start.

When "Protected !!" is displayed, the MD is protected

 

against accidental erasure. Slide the accidental

 

erasure protection tab to close the hole. A playback-only

 

MD is loaded. Replace the MD with a recordable one.

 

 

 

When "D-IN UNLOCK !" is displayed and the source audio

 

is not input, connect the source through digital connection

 

or record the audio using the analog input.

 

 

 

Timer recording is unavailable.

 

After timer recording, turn the power back on within 3 or

 

4 days and eject the MD. If the deck is left off for a long

 

time, the recorded contents may disappear.

 

 

 

When "Disc Full !!" is displayed, the disc has no remain-

 

ing time available for recording. Erase unnecessary

 

tracks or use another MD.

 

 

 

When "Rec Error !!" is displayed, there is an error in

 

recording. Restart recording from the beginning.

 

 

Too much noise.

Do not operate this deck near a TV.

 

 

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