If you have problems with your system, look through this chart
and see if you can solve the problem yourself before calling your
dealer or TEAC service center.

General 

No power

e

Check the connection to the AC power supply. Check and
make sure the AC source is not a switched outlet and that,
if it is, the switch is turned on. Make sure there is power to
the AC outlet by plugging another item such as a lamp or
fan into the outlet.

No sound from speakers.

e

Select the source by pressing the FUNCTION button (TUNER,
CD or AUX).

e

Check the connection to the speakers.

e

Adjust the volume.

e

Pull out the headphone’s plug from the PHONES jack.

e

If the VOLUME level indicator is blinking, press the MUTING

button. (When “CD” is selected, press the Play/Pause button
(

G

/

J

) to start playback.)

The sound is noisy.

e

The unit is too close to a TV or similar appliances. Install the
unit apart from them, or turn them off.

Remote control doesn’t work.

e

Press the STANDBY/ON switch of the main unit to turn the
unit on.

e

If the batteries are dead, change the batteries.

e

Use remote control unit within the range (5 m) and point at
the front panel.

e

Clear obstacles between the remote control unit and the
main unit.

e

If a strong light is near the unit, turn it off.

CD Player

Will not play.

e

Load a disc with the playback side facing away.

e

If the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.

e

A blank disc has been loaded. Load a prerecorded disc.

e

Depending on the disc, etc. it may not be possible to play
back CD-R/RW discs. Try again with another disc.

e

You cannot play back unfinalized CD-R/RW discs. Finalize
such a disc in a CD recorder and try again.

Sound skips.

e

Place the unit on a stable place to avoid vibration and shock.

e

If the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.

e

Don’t use scratched, damaged or warped discs.

Troubleshooting

Tuner

Cannot listen to any station, or signal is too weak.

e

Tune in the station properly.

e

Rotate the FM antenna (or the main unit) for the best
reception position.

Though the broadcast is stereo, it sounds monaural.

e

Press the FM MODE button.

If normal operation cannot be recovered, unplug the
power cord from the outlet and plug it again.

Beware of condensation

When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm
place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is
the danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense
on the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic
or impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit
turned on for one or two hours. The unit will stabilize at the
temperature of its surroundings.

Maintenance

If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or
use a diluted mild liquid soap. Be sure to remove any excess
liquid completely. Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol as
they may damage the surface of the unit. Allow the surface
of the unit to dry completely before using.
