TROUBLESHOOTING

If you believe your CD player is failing to work properly, check the following troubleshooting table for tips. Sometimes simple mistakes in setup or operation may appear like serious problems. There are also times when the problem in question may be caused by something else other than your CD player, and at times like these you should check any other electronic devices being used at the same time.

If the problem in question continues to persist even after checking the troubleshooting table below and taking whatever corrective action is recommended, contact your nearest Pioneer Service Station or contact the store from which you purchased your player for further assistance.

ÖThere may be times when the CMX-5000 fails to operate properly as a result of static electricity or some other form of interference from an outside source. If any such problem occurs, turn off the power to the CMX-5000, wait for the currently inserted disc to come to a full stop, and then turn on the power again to see if that fixes the problem in question.

ÖThe CMX-5000 cannot be used to replay partially-written CD-R or CD-RW discs.

ÖThe CMX-5000 cannot be used to replay non-standard-shaped discs or any discs other than 12-cm discs or 8-cm discs which have been inserted into an 8-cm disc adapter. (Note that attempting to replay such discs may result in damage or breakdown.)

ÖThe BPM value measured by the CMX-5000 may differ from the BPM value recorded on a CD or from our DJ mixer, but this difference is a result of differences in the BPM value measurement method; not a result of a fault with the player.
