Troubleshooting Guide
Although the greatest care has been
taken in the manufacturing of this
unit, the possibility remains that a
fault could appear or that for some
reason the unit could fail to function
to your complete satisfaction.
The cause, however, will not always
be found in the unit itself. External
factors and the fact that it takes time
to become accustomed to the whole
concept of the new product and the
new discs, can also play a role.
To save unnecessary calls on your
dealer or our Service Organization,
we have compiled a list of possible
faults and their causes. To even
mention some of these causes, such
as those to do with power
connection, may seem excessive.
Our experience shows, however, that
they are easily overlooked as
sources of trouble. If, by using this
list, you do not succeed in solving
the problem, stop your investigation.
Disconnect the AC cord and contact
your dealer.
Under no circumstances should you
open up the unit. If you should, this
will invalidate all your rights under
the warranty.
NOTE:
If the faults relating to the power or
the connections arise when the unit
is a part of a system, check your
operating instructions for the
amplifier of the system.
1. AFTER PRESSING
THE POWER SWITCH,
THE DISPLAY IS NOT ON OR THE
CAROUSEL DOES NOT ROTATE.
• The POWER switch is not pressed
completely.
• One of the plugs of the AC input
cord is not connected or is not
making contact.
• There is no supply at the AC
outlet. Plug in another electrical
appliance to check if the AC outlet
functions.
2. DISC IS LOADED
BUT PLAY DOES NOT START
• The disc is not loaded with the
labelled side up.
• The disc is dirty. See if cleaning
the disc or using another clean
disc clears the fault.
• The disc is defective. Try another
disc and see if that clears the
fault.
• There is an unwanted object such
as a piece of paper or a remnant
of packaging in the tray.
3. THE DISC PLAYED
AND THE TRACK NUMBER
AND THE ELAPSED TIME
INDICATORS FUNCTION WELL,
BUT THERE IS NO SOUND.
• The amplifier is not turned on.
• The position of the amplifier
source selector does not corre-
spond with the input to which the
unit is connected.
• The amplifier or the speakers
connected to it are not working.
Check it with another sound
source to see if this is the case.
• The microprocessor has not
received the command correctly.
Turn the unit off and on again and
then try restarting to see if that
clears the fault.
• The unit is not connected to the
amplifier correctly.
• The input to which the unit is
connected is defective. Check it
by connecting the unit to another
input jack.
4. THE SOUND IS POOR
OR DISTORTED OR YOU
CAN HEAR ONLY ONE CHANNEL.
• The unit is not connected to the
CD or AUX input of the amplifier
but to the PHONO input.
• One of the plugs of the connection
cords is either not connected or
not properly connected.
• The amplifier or the speakers
connected to it are not working
properly. Check it with another
sound source to see if this is the
case.
5. PROGRAMMING
IS NOT WORKING.
• The microprocessor has not
processed the commands prop-
erly. Clear the program by
pressing the OPEN/CLOSE button
or the STOP/CLEAR button over 4
seconds. Try to program again,
restart play and check if the fault
is cleared.
• The memory was already full of 32
selections and you missed the
“FULL” sign that indicated it.
Check it with the PROGRAM/
REVIEW button.
