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 the previous operation, 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 CLOCK button and the EQUALIZER/X-BASS/DEMO
button, press the ON/STAND-BY button until "CLEAR AL" appears.
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock, timer settings,
tuner preset, and CD programme.

during transportation.

Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely humid environ-
ment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on
the transmitter on the remote control.

unit.

power on.
2 Press the CD button.

the disc tray.

the disc tray.
Make sure that "NO DISC" is displayed.
5 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the
stand-by mode, and then unplug the AC
power lead from the wall socket.
6 Insert the transport screw into the back of the unit
and tighten it with a flat head screwdriver or a coin.
