Tuner

There is severe hum or noise (“TUNED” or
“STEREO” flashes).

• Set the proper band and frequency (see page 13).

• Connect the antenna properly (see page 7).

• Find a place and an orientation that provide good

reception, then set up the antenna again.
If you cannot obtain good reception, we
recommend you connect a commercially
available external antenna.

• The supplied FM wire antenna receives signals

along its entire length, so make sure you extend
it fully.

• Locate the antennas as far away from the speaker

cords as possible.

• Consult your nearest Sony dealer if the supplied

AM antenna wire has come off the plastic stand.

• Try turning off surrounding electrical equipment.

A stereo FM program cannot be received in
stereo.

• Press FM MODE on the remote until “MONO”

disappears.

• See “There is severe hum or noise (“TUNED” or

“STEREO” flashes).”, and check the antenna
condition.

There is no sound.

• Refer to General item “There is no sound.” on

page 23 and check the condition of the system.

• Connect the component properly (see page 21)

while checking:

• Turn on the connected component.

• Refer to the operating instructions included with

the connected component and start playing.

• Press FUNCTION repeatedly until “PC” (or

“MD” or “TAPE”) appears.

The sound is distorted.

• Set the volume of the connected component

lower.
