This unit contains a sensitive microcomputer, which under certain circumstances might fail to operate due to excessive noise
interference. If this happens, press the DVD Receiver’s VIDEO 1 button and STANDBY/ON button at the same time until
“CLEAR” appears in the DVD Receiver’s display. The DVD Receiver turns into the standby mode, then all the custom settings
in the DVD Receiver’s memory will be erased. Please repeat the custom settings from the beginning.
Symptoms

sound is interrupted
occasionally. (“STEREO”

Sound is excessively
distorted.
No preset channels are

Sound is reproduced from

The buttons on the DVD
Receiver operate but the

Causes
• FM stereo waves may produce a hiss
noise when a certain level is reached.
• The position or direction of the FM aerial
is incorrect.
• The station is too weak.
• The radio wave is distorted.
• Cars are running or airplanes are flying
near the house.
• There is a tall building or a mountain
nearby.
[The waves transmitted from the
transmission center (direct waves) and
the waved diffracted by buildings or
mountains (diffraction waves) interfere
with each other causing multi pass
distortion.]
• The mains lead is unplugged, or the main
power is switched off, for a long time.
• The sound system you are trying to
record is DTS Surround.
• A wrong sound signal conversion method
is selected.

Remedies
• Switch the frequency receiving mode to
mono.
• Lower the treble level.
• Adjust the position, height, and direction
of the FM aerial.
• Connect an outdoor FM aerial. Try to use
an aerial with more elements.
(For installation of the outdoor aerial,
consult your nearest dealer as it requires
special skills and experience.)

• The preset data in memory is lost. Preset
the radio stations again.
• DTS Surround sound is unable to be
recorded regardless of the sound signal
conversion method.
• Check the current sound signal
conversion method and select the right
one for recording.
