SEARCH FOR ERRORS

Possible Cause
Mains cable is not connected to a suitable
mains wall outlet.
Mains cable has not been firmly inserted into
wall power socket and the device's socket.
Otherwise it may be defective.
Unit fuse or unit is defective.
A device connected to the "POWER CON-
TROL" input transmits the switching signal
(12V).
An unsuitable data medium e.g. a DVD or a
data CD-R has been inserted.
Perhaps the CD is dirty or scratched.
The CD was not inserted with the printed side
up.
A CD-R was written at too great a speed.
If there is a large major in the ambient tempe-
rature, moisture may have precipitated in the
player's drive.
A wrong input channel or a volume setting
too low has been selected at the amplifier.
The appropriate audio output of the player is
not connected or not correctly connected with
the desired input connector of the
receiver/amplifier.
CD playing has not been started.
Output level "VOL" (36)(37) has been set too
low with the remote control.
It has been switched off before using
"DIMMER" (20).
Analogue audio outputs of the CD player are
connected to phono inputs of the
amplifier/receiver/preamplifier.
The cable connections are not tight, the con-
nectors are dirty or a cable is defective.
Countermeasure
Connect to a functioning socket using a suitab-
le mains voltage.
Check the power cable. If necessary,
ex change it with a suitable mains cable
and push its plug firmly into wall socket and
the device's power connector.
Contact your dealer.
Switch off the device that controls the swit-
ching on/off of the system (usually preampli-
fier or integrated amplifier). If the power con-
trol function is not desired, remove all the
cables from the "POWER CONTROL"
connectors (18).
The relevant disc cannot be played with this
player.
Clean the CD and try it again.
Insert the CD in the correct position.
The disc cannot be played.
After 1-2 hours the moisture should have
evaporated and the CD will play again.
Check and correct the connections and set-
tings.
Create an audio connection between the CD
player and the receiver/amplifier as descri-
bed in the "Installation" section.
Start playback with "PLAY/PAUSE" (12)(26).
Carefully increase the output level.
Press the button "DIMMER" (20) one more time.
Use a normal high level input ("CD" or "LINE
IN") on these devices.
Check the cables and cable connections.
