There may be times when MEP-7000 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 MEP-7000, 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.

This unit cannot play “partial” (unfinalized) CD-R/-RW, DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW, and DVD±R dual layer media.

Do not attempt to play irregularly shaped or other discs besides normal 12 cm round discs, since malfunction or damage may result.

The BPM value measured by MEP-7000 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.

ABOUT THE LCD SCREEN

Some LCD monitors may display so-called “hot pixels” or “dead pixels” (constantly bright pixels or pixels that are permanently off). This is a phenomenon characteristic of LCD displays and is not considered a malfunction.

When used in cold regions, the screen may appear dark for a while after the power is first turned on. As the unit warms up with time, the screen will return to normal brightness.

Avoid viewing the LCD screen in direct sunlight, since the light reflected off the screen may make the image difficult to view.

ABOUT OEL (ORGANIC EL) SCREENS

• The two screens (displays A/B) may display slightly different color characteristics, but this is not a malfunction.
