Tuner

The FM reception is poor.

• Use a 75-ohm coaxial cable (not supplied)

to connect the receiver to an outdoor FM
antenna as shown below. If you connect
the receiver to an outdoor antenna, ground
it against lightning. To prevent a gas
explosion, do not connect the ground wire
to a gas pipe.

Radio stations cannot be tuned in.

• Check that the antennas are connected

securely. Adjust the antennas and connect
an external antenna, if necessary.

• The signal strength of the stations is too

weak (when tuning in with automatic
tuning). Use direct tuning.

• Make sure you set the tuning interval

correctly (when tuning in AM stations
with direct tuning).

• No stations have been preset or the preset

stations have been cleared (when tuning by
scanning preset stations). Preset the
stations (page 56).

• Press DISPLAY repeatedly on the receiver

so that the frequency appears on the
display.

Remote commander

The remote does not function.

• Point the remote at the remote sensor on

the receiver.

• Remove any obstacles in the path between

the remote and the receiver.

• Replace all the batteries in the remote with

new ones, if they are weak.

• Make sure you select the correct input on

the remote.

• The AUX button on the remote are not

available for receiver operation.

• When you operate a programmed non-

Sony component, the remote may not
function properly depending on the model
and the maker of the component.

Error messages

codes” (page 33) t
o solve the problem.

DEC. EROR

Appears when a signal the receiver cannot
decode (ex. DTS-CD) is input and “DEC.
PRI.” in the AUDIO menu is set to “DEC.
PCM”. Set it to “DEC. AUTO” (page 42).

PROTECT
