REFERENCE Troubleshooting (Continued) Symptom Severe hum or noise is heard. Radio stations cannot be tuned in. No sound from OPTICAL IN jack. The remote control does not work properly. Cause The plugs and jacks are dirty. The disc is dirty. The speakers and components are connected poorly. The DVD/VCR Receiver is located too close to the TV. The antenna is positioned or connected poorly. The signal strength of the stations is too weak (when tuning in with automatic tuning). No stations have been preset or preset stations have been cleared (when tuning by scanning preset stations). DVD/VCR Receiver source is not set to OPTICAL IN. The remote control is not pointed at the remote sensor of the DVD/VCR Receiver. There is an obstacle in the path of the remote control and the DVD/VCR Receiver. The batteries in the remote control are exhausted. This remote control uses same buttons for VIDEO and DVD (ex. H (PLAY)). Correction Wipe them with a cloth slightly moistened with alcohol. Clean the disc. Connect the speakers and components securely. Move your TV away from the audio components. Connect the antenna securely. Adjust the antennas and connect an external antenna if necessary. Tune in the station manually. Preset the stations (see page 38). Select L1 OPT by pressing INPUT SELECT. Point the remote control at the remote sensor of the DVD/VCR Receiver. Remove the obstacle. Replace the batteries with new ones. When using a VIDEO, first press the VIDEO button. When using a DVD, first press the DVD button. Moisture Condensation Moisture condensation can occur: • When the DVD/VCR Receiver is moved from a cold place to a warm place. • Under extremely humid conditions. In locations where moisture condensation may occur: • Keep the DVD/VCR Receiver plugged into an AC power outlet with POWER On. This will help prevent condensation. • When condensation has occurred, wait a few hours for the DVD/VCR Receiver to dry before using it. Video Head Cleaning The dirt accumulating on the head after a long period of time can cause the playback picture to become blurred or broken up. High quality video cassette tapes will not normally deposit dirt onto the video head, but old or damaged tapes might. 43
