Troubleshooting
Incorrect use can be mistaken for trouble or malfunction. If you think there is something wrong with this component, check the points
below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in another component. Check the other components and electrical appliances being used. If the
trouble cannot be rectified even after checking the points below, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized service station to carry out repair
work.
• Power turns of suddenly during operation.
• Check that the cooling vents are not blocked. Do not use
on thick carpet or cover with cloth in use.
• No sound.
• No sound when trying to listen to the radio.
• Check that the FM and AM antennas are connected
properly.
• CD doesn't play.
• Check that the disc is loaded with its printed/label side
face outward.
• Check that the disc is clean and free of scratches and
other damage. If necessary, clean the disc.
• When listening to the radio, the sound is noisy
or distorted.
• If you're listening to a stereo FM station, try switching to
mono.
• Check that the antenna(s) are connected securely.
• Try moving the antenna(s) to face a different direction.
• Check that there aren't any electrical appliances
operating near the antenna(s).
• Try using the alternative tuning frequency interval.
• Broadcast is stereo but the sound from the
speakers is mono.
• Switch to auto stereo mode.
• Can't set the timer.
• Check that the clock has been set.
• Remote control doesn't work.
• Try replacing the batteries.
• Check that fluorescent light, or other strong light is not
shining onto the remote sensor.
• Make sure that you're using the remote within its
operating range.
• Can't record
• Check that the erase-protect tabs are intact, or covered
with tape. Cover broken tabs with tape to enable
recording. (page 65)
• Recordings are muddy or distorted
• Clean the tape heads. (page 65)
• Previous recording can still be heard
underneath a new one.
• Check that you're using either a Type I (Normal), or Type
II (CrO
2
) tape.
• Clean the heads. (page 65)
• Playback sound is muddy or distorted; high
frequency sounds are excessively emphasized.
• Check that Dolby NR is set to the same setting as that
used during recording. (page 50)
• Miscellaneous problems
• When the system is installed near a television set,
magnetic influence from the speakers may cause the
television’s picture to be distorted. This symptom
frequently occurs when using an indoor antenna; in this
event, install an outdoor antenna, or separate the system
farther from the television.
• Static electricity and other outside electrical influences
may cause the system to operate incorrectly. In such
cases, unplugging and reconnecting the power cord may
help correct the problem.
• More than one of the same kind of component (CD tuner,
MD recorder, CD-Recorder or cassette deck) cannot be
connected at the same time.
