Unit requires repair.
Radio Fault
If there is a fault with the radio system then the RADIO LED will blink when the radio sync
source is selected. Normally, the unit can still be used with this fault by using one of the
other sync sources. If the fault does not clear after switching off and on again then the
unit needs to be serviced by an authorised repairer.
Errors
Errors are due to an internal fault that either cannot be cleared or re-occurs frequently.
This includes the fan not running when OH is displayed.
An Error displayed will require the unit to be checked and repaired by an authorised
repairer. Failure to take steps to correct the error or having the repair carried out by an
unauthorised repairer will invalidate the warranty.

of correct operation.
