Troubleshooting
1
Make sure the power cord and
speaker cords are correctly and
firmly connected.
2
Find your problem in the checklist
below, and take the indicated
corrective action.
If the problem persists, contact your
nearest Sony dealer.
Note that if service personnel changes
some parts during repair, these parts
may be retained.
General
The display starts flashing as soon as
you plug in the power cord even
though you have not turned on the
system.
• Press DISPLAY once while the system
is turned off. The demonstration
disappears.
Sound comes from one channel,
or the left and right volumes are
unbalanced.
• Place the speakers as symmetrically as
possible.
• Connect only the supplied speakers.
Severe hum or noise.
• Move the system away from sources of
noise.
• Connect the system to a different wall
socket.
• Install a noise filter (available
separately) to the power cord.
• Turn off the surrounding electrical
equipment.
The remote does not function.
• Remove any obstacles between the
remote and the remote sensor on the
unit, and position the unit away from
fluorescent lights.
• Point the remote at the system’s sensor.
• Move the remote closer to the system.
CD/MP3 player
The sound skips, or the disc will not
play.
• Wipe the disc clean.
• Move the system to a location away
from vibration (for example, on top of a
stable stand).
• Move the speakers away from the unit,
or place them on separate stands. At
high volume, speaker vibration may
cause the sound to skip.
Play does not start from the first
track.
• Press PLAY MODE repeatedly until
both “PGM” and “SHUF” light off in
the display to return to normal play.
Others
If the STANDBY indicator flashes
Immediately unplug the power cord,
and check the following items.
• If your system has a voltage selector,
is the voltage selector set to the
correct voltage?
• Are you using only the supplied
speakers?
• Is anything blocking the ventilation
holes on the back of the unit?
After checking the above items and
fixing any problems, plug in the power
cord again and turn on the system. If
the STANDBY indicator still flashes,
or if the cause of the problem cannot
be found even after checking all the
above items, consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
