Troubleshooting Chart (continued)

If trouble occurs
When this product is subjected to strong external interference (mechanical shock,
excessive static electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is
operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.
If such a problem occurs, do the following:
1. Set the unit to the stand-by mode and turn the power on again.
2. If the unit is not restored in step 1, unplug and plug in the unit, and then turn the
power on.
Note:
If neither operation above restores the unit, clear all the memory by resetting it.
Clearing all the memory (reset)
1. Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the power stand-by mode.
2. Whilst pressing down the PRESET W button and the DISPLAY (DEMO) button,
press the ON/STAND-BY button.
After the “RESET” is displayed for about 1 second, the unit will enter the power
stand-by mode.
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock, timer settings,
tuner preset, and CD or MiniDisc programme.
Before transporting the unit
Remove the CD and the MiniDisc from the unit. Your unit checks whether there is a
disc inside the unit when the compartment is closed. “NO DISC” appears if no disc is
left. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying the unit with discs left
inside can damage it.

Maintenance

Cleaning the CD pickup lens
Do not touch the laser pickup lens. If fingerprints or dust accumulate on the pickup,
clean it gently with a dry cotton swab.
Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap solution, then with
a dry cloth.
Caution:
Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It may damage the
cabinet finish.
Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunctions.
