Should you encounter a problem with your
system, do the following:
1 Make sure the power cord and speaker
cords are correctly and firmly connected.
2 Find your problem in the troubleshooting
checklist below and take the indicated
corrective action.
If the problem persists after doing all of the
above, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
In case of repairing, please bring the entire
system set (except for the speaker) to the service
station.
General
The display starts flashing as soon as you
plug in the power cord even though you have
not turned on the system (see step 3 of
“Hooking up the system” on page 7).
• Press DISPLAY twice when the system is turned
off. The demonstration disappears.
“– –:– –” appears in the display.
• A power interruption has occurred. Set the clock
(page 8) and timer settings (pages 26 and 27)
again.
The clock setting/radio presetting/timer is
canceled.
• The power cord is disconnected or a power failure
occurs longer than half a day.
Redo the following:
–– “Setting the clock” on page 8
–– “Presetting radio stations” on page 19
If you have set the timer, also redo “Waking up to
music” on page 26 and “Timer recording radio
programs” on page 27.
There is no sound.
• Press VOL + (or turn VOLUME clockwise on the
unit).
• Make sure the headphones are not connected.
• Insert only the stripped portion of the speaker cord
into the SPEAKER jack. Inserting the vinyl

the display when you press VIDEO (MD), switch
the function to MD (see “Listening to audio from
a connected component” on page 33).

(pages 26 and 27).
• Cancel the Sleep Timer Function (page 26).
• Make sure the clock is correctly set.
The color on the TV screen is irregular.
• Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15
to 30 minutes. If the color irregularity still
persists, move the speakers farther away from the
TV set.

(size AA/R6).
