Fault
Playback sound is muffled and high
frequencies are inaudible.
When playing back tapes recorded on
other decks, meter deflections are
greater (smaller) than when recorded.
(KX-493 only)
Recordings cannot be made with
TIMER REC (deck only plays back).
The remote control transmitter cannot
be operated.
Cause
÷
Normally-recorded tape is played back in
Dolby NR.
÷
Heads are dirty.
÷
Heads are magnetized.
÷
Basic levels are different for different
cassette decks.
÷
Protective tabs on cassette have been
broken off.
÷
The batteries are exhausted.
÷
The remote control transmitter is operated
from an incorrect distance or angle.
÷
The remote control sensor is lighted
strongly.
Cure
÷
Playback in OFF position.
÷
Clean heads and carry out demagnetiza-
tion with head demagnetizer.
÷
This is not a fault.
÷
Replace cassette tape, or cover tab
holes with tape, etc.
÷
Replace batteries.
÷
Operate it from less than 7 meters (about
23 ft.) and 30°.
÷
Place the unit away from the strong light.
