Troubleshooting

Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is something wrong with

this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in another component. Investigate the other

components and electrical appliances being used. If the trouble cannot be rectified even after exercising the checks

listed below, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.

• If the unit does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity disconnect the power plug

from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions.

frequency sound is played at a high sound volume level.

- Turn the power OFF and wait for at least one minute, then turn the power ON again;

play the music at a lower sound volume level.

- When power is turned ON again, if the STANDBY/APD indicator flashes red at

irregular intervals, the unit’s circuitry may be damaged. Disconnect the power cord

and consult your dealer or nearest Pioneer service station.

During playback, sound stops, and

the STANDBY/APD indicator flashes
