TROUBLESHOOTING

serious. Make sure first ...

PLAY button is pressed, tape
does not move.

off?

5 The disc is loaded but does not play.
* Is the disc upside down?
* Is the disc dirty?
* Is the disc damaged or warped?
* Is the lens dirty?
* Is there lens condensation? If so, set the
(on/
off) button to the on position and wait one or two
hours before use.
6 No sound from the speakers.
* Are headphones connected?
7 Since tape speed is irregular, wow and flutter
occur.

* Are the batteries run down?
8 Radio reception is poor and there is much
static.

(direct sunlight, etc.)?
Note:
When the unit is moved from a cold place of around 0˚C
to a warm place, it may not operate normally, because
moisture has formed inside the deck. Normal operation
will be restored after waiting one or two hours.
