outputs

switched

 

 

off; 'A' or 'B' not glowing on the

 

 

screen.

Problem:

from the

speakers

 

 

when

playing back

through

 

 

TAPE or AUX/TV.

 

 

Cause:

 

Poor contact of a Cinch plug or a

 

 

faulty Cinch lead.

 

 

Remedy:

 

Please check all connections and

 

 

cables.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Problem:

 

The unit switches off repea-

 

 

tedly at fairly high volume le-

 

 

vels.

 

 

 

 

Cause1:

 

Overheating due to heat build-

 

 

up.

 

 

 

 

Remedy:

 

Set up the unit in a position whe-

 

 

re there is an unobstructed flow

 

 

of cooling air.

 

 

 

 

 

Cause2:

 

Overheating due to insufficient

 

 

loudspeaker impedance.

Remedy:

Tuner section

 

 

 

Problem:

 

The RDS station name does

 

 

not appear on the screen.

Cause1:

 

The station is not broadcasting

 

 

RDS information, or is not cor-

 

 

rectly tuned in.

Remedy:

 

Tune in the station so that the

 

 

tuning indicator is in the centre

 

 

position.

 

 

 

Cause2:

 

The tuner is picking up interfer-

 

 

ence on the same frequency, or

 

 

the signal strength is too low.

Remedy:

 

Select only those stations which

 

 

can be received with good sig-

 

 

nal strength, devoid of back-

 

 

ground hiss and interference.

 

 

 

Problem:

 

When you switch presets the

 

 

RDS station name does not

 

 

appear correctly, or only after

 

 

a long wait.

Cause:

 

The name was not picked up

 

 

correctly during the preset stor-

 

 

ing procedure, or the station is

 

 

broadcasting the station name as

 

 

a running script, contrary to the

 

 

RDS norms.

Remedy:

 

Call up the preset and wait until

 

 

the station name appears cor-

 

 

rectly on the screen, then store it

 

 

manually.
