MD Player

Radio

An incompletely inserted MD cannot be pulled out.

•The MD player’s self-lock system has gripped the MD. Insert the MD completely, then press Z.

"Disc Error" lights in the display and the player does not operate.

•Take the MD out and insert it again. If "Disc Error" remains, replace the MD. Try erasing all tracks on the MD (page 26).

“– – –:– –” appears in the display instead of the playing time or the remaining time.

•This player can display the time up to 159 minutes 59 seconds. If the time is longer than this, it will be displayed as

“– – –:– –”.

The MD does not play.

•Take out the MD and leave the player in a warm place for several hours until the moisture evaporates.

•The MD is inserted in the wrong direction. Slide the MD into the disc compartment with the label side up and the arrow pointing towards the opening until the player grips it.

•The MD may be blank (the music calendar does not appear). Replace the disc with one that has been recorded.

The MD does not record.

•The MD is record-protected ("Protected" appears). Close the record-protect slot.

•The track has been protected using another MD recorder ("Trk Protect" appears). Release the track-protect on the same MD recorder that protected the track.

•The player is not connected properly to the sound source. Make connections properly to the sound source.

•A pre-mastered MD is inserted. Replace it with a recordable MD.

•There is not enough space left on the MD. Replace it with another recordable MD with enough space, or erase unnecessary tracks.

•There has been a power failure. The mains lead has been disconnected. Data recorded to that point may be lost. Repeat the recording procedure.

The recorded sound drops out.

•The sound was recorded at high volume. Record again at lower volume.

A stereo programme cannot be received in stereo.

•Press MODE until "Stereo" appears in the display (page 11).

The audio is weak or has poor quality.

•The FM stereo broadcast may be noisy (page 11).

•Move the player away from the TV.

•If you are using the remote while listening to an MW/LW radio, noise may be heard. This is unavoidable.

•Move the MW/LW loop aerial away from the player.

Timer

•Make sure the time on the clock is correct.

•Check to see if the AC power had been cut off.
