the recorder. If a disc is still in the recorder, press

wait until the clock appears in the front panel
display. Then, unplug the recorder and after
leaving it off for a while, plug it in again.
The disc tray does not open after you press
Z
(open/close).
, It may take a few seconds for the disc tray to
open after you have recorded or edited a disc.
This is because the recorder is adding disc data to
the disc.
Mechanical sound is heard when the recorder
is off.
, While the recorder is adjusting the clock for the
Auto Clock Set function or scanning the
channels for the PDC/VPS function, operational
noises (such as the internal fan) may be heard,
even when the power is off. This is not a
malfunction.
Mechanical sound is heard from the subwoofer
or the recorder when no disc is played.
,
The recorder and the subwoofer have ventilation
fans, which operate when the power is on.
Mechanical sound may also be heard when the
disc spins. These are operational sounds and are
not malfunctions.
The speaker does not work normally.
,
Disconnect the mains lead of the subwoofer from
the mains. Wait about two minutes until the
"/1
indicator on the centre unit turns off, and then
connect the mains lead.
