Sony CMT-L1 Operating Instructions - Page 25

Troubleshooting Tuner There is severe hum or noise ("TUNED" or "STEREO" flashes). • Set the proper band and frequency (see page 16). • Connect the antenna properly (see page 7). • Find a place and an orientation that provide good reception, then set up the antenna again. If you cannot obtain good reception, we recommend you connect a commercially available external antenna. • The supplied FM wire antenna receives signals along its entire length, so make sure you extend it fully. • Locate the antennas as far away from the speaker cords as possible. • Consult your nearest Sony dealer if the supplied AM antenna wire has come off the plastic stand. • Try turning off surrounding electrical equipment. A stereo FM program cannot be received in stereo. • Press FM MODE on the remote until "MONO" disappears from the display. • See "There is severe hum or noise ("TUNED" or "STEREO" flashes).", and check the antenna condition. Optional components There is no sound. • Refer to General item "There is no sound." on page 24 and check the condition of the system. • Connect the component properly (see page 22) while checking: - if the cords are connected properly. - if the cord plugs are firmly inserted all the way. • Turn on the connected component. • Refer to the operating instructions included with the connected component and start playing. • Press FUNCTION repeatedly until "MD" (or "TAPE") appears in the display. The sound is distorted. • Set the volume of the connected component lower. If the system still does not operate properly after performing the above measures, reset the system as follows: With the system turned on, press DISPLAY, TUNER/BAND and FUNCTION at the same time. "COLD RESET" appears in the display and the system turns off. All system parameters are reset to their factory settings. Afterwards, be sure to do the followings procedures again: presetting the radio stations, setting the clock and the timer, and labelling the CD.
