However, if interference is experienced, for instance to radio or TV broadcasts, the user is rec- ommended to try one or more of the following measures:

•Identify the source of interference by turning off power to the CD player or other equipment individually, and checking whether the problem disappears.

•Re-orientate or relocate the receiving aerial.

•Move the CD player away from the receiver.

•Connect the CD player to a mains outlet on a different circuit from the receiver.

•Consult a dealer or experienced TV/radio technician for help.
