Interference.
Notes:
1. This system is microprocessor-controlled, so malfunction may occur due to external noise or interference noise. In such a case, unplug the
power cord, plug it and turn power on again.
2. Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful against contact cleaners containing oil, for they may
deform the plastic components.
• The preset station belongs to a frequency
that cannot be received.
• The preset memory was cleared because
the power cord had been unplugged for a
long period of time.
• Noise due to ignition noise of an
automobile.
• Noise due to an influence from an electric
appliance.
• Noise due to a nearby TV set.
Speaker protection circuitry
If the speaker cords are short-circuited, the speaker protection
circuitry is activated and the sound is muted. If this occurs,
switch the POWER key to OFF, remove the short-circuit from
the speaker cords, and switch the POWER key to ON again.
Normal operation wili resume.
Cause
• Connect an antenna.
• Set the broadcast band properly.
• Tune the frequency of the desired station.
• Preset a station with a receivable

Strömbrytarens POWER beredskapsläge
Indikatorn STAND BY lands after nätkabelns anslutning till all
vägguttag, oavsett strömbrytarens POWER till/frànslag. Detta
anger att en liten mängd ström leds till komponenten som stöd
för minnesinnehállet. Detta läge kallas för beredskapsläget.
Strömbrytaren pà fjärrkontrollen kan användas för att slà pà och
av strömmen sä länge indikatorn STAND BY lyser.
Virtanappäimen (POWER) valmiustiia (STAND BY)
Kun laitteen verkkojohto on liitetty pistorasiaan, valmiustilan
merkkivalo syttyy riippumatta virtanäppäimen (POWER)
ásennosla (ON/OFF). Merkkivalo osoittaa, että laitteessa on
hieman virtaa muistin sisältöjen ylläpitoa varíen. Tätä tilaa
kutsutaan valmiustilaksi. Kun valmiustilan merkkivalo (STAND
BY) palaa, laitteen virta voidaan kytkeä ja katkaista
kaukosäätimellä.
Afbrydertastens (POWER) STAND BY funktion
När apparatets str(|>mledning er tilsluttet en stikkontakt, lyser
STAND BY Indikatoren, uanset om der er taendt ved afbryderen
pä apparatet eher ej. Det angiver, at apparatet bliver forsynet
med en ganske lille maengde stri|)m til opret-holdelse af
hukommelsens indhold. Denne funktion kaldes STAND BY. När
STAND BY Indikatoren er taendt, kan str<|)mmen til apparatet släs
til og fra med fjernstyringsenheden.
PÄ/AV-knappens Stand-by funksjon
När str(|>mledningen til dette anlegget er satt i en
vekselstr(|>mskontakt, vii STAND-BY indikatorlampen lyse enten
PÀ/AV-knappen er pä- eller avsiätt. Dette betyr at en viss
mengde str<|>m tilf(|)res anlegget slik at innholdet i minnet ikke
