SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

The self-diagnosis function consists of error codes for customers which are displayed automatically when errors occur, and error codes which show the error history in the test mode during servicing. For details on how to view error codes for the customer, refer to the following box in the instruction manual. For details on how to check error codes during servicing, refer to the following “Procedure for using the Self- Diagnosis Function (Error History Display Mode)”.

Self-diagnosis function

The deck’s self-diagnosis function automatically checks the condition of the MD deck when an error occurs, then issues a three- or five-digit code and an error message on the display. If the code and message alternate, find them in the following table and perform the indicated countermeasure. Should the problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

digit code/	Cause/Remedy
