Troubleshooting chart (continued)
!
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)
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock,
timer settings, tuner preset, and CD programme.
 
!
Condensation
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely
humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD
pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmitter on the remote control.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. If this happens,
leave the power on with no disc (or cassette) in the unit until normal
playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on
the transmitter with a soft cloth before operating the unit.
Maintenance
!
Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap
solution, then with a dry cloth.
Caution:
"
Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It
may damage the cabinet finish.
"
Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunc-
tions.
 
!
Cleaning the tape-handling parts
"
Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
"
When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit
which contains high voltages.
"
After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become
magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once
every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial
tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions
carefully before use.
!
Cleaning the CD pickup lens
Poor performance during CD playback (skipping or jumping) can be
caused by a dirty or contaminated CD laser pick up lens. If this hap-
pens then the use of a commercially available CD lens cleaning
discs may restore normal operation. Contact your supplier or local
CD software dealer to obtain CD lens cleaning discs. Ensure all
included instructions/documentation are carefully followed.
1
Press the ON/STAND-BY button to 
enter the power stand-by mode.
2
Whilst pressing down the MEMORY/
SET button and the TAPE 
 but-
ton, press the ON/STAND-BY button 
until "CLEAR" appears.
