Troubleshooting
—Continued
Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, the Auto Preset function doesn’t preset all stations, or
the FM ST indicator doesn’t light up when tuned to a stereo FM station.
• Check the antenna connections (see pages 16 and 17).
• Change the position of the antenna (see page 32).
•Move the CBX-300 away from a nearby TV or computer.
• Cars or airplanes can cause noisy interference.
• The radio signal will be weakened if it has to pass through a concrete wall before reaching the antenna.
• Switch to Mono mode and listen in mono. The FM ST indicator will go off (see page 32).
• When listening to an AM station, noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller.
• If none of the above improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna (see page 17).
If a power outage occurs or the power cable is disconnected.
• If there’s no power for a long time, the radio presets will be lost. In this case, preset them again (see pages 33 and 34).
Can’t adjust the frequency of the radio.
• Use the remote controller’s TUNING [ ]/[ ] buttons to change the frequency of the radio (see page 32).
RDS doesn’t work (European models only).
• The FM station you are tuned to doesn’t support RDS.
• The radio signal is weak. Change the position of the antenna. If that doesn’t work, install an outdoor FM antenna (see
page 17).
The remote controller doesn’t work properly.
• Replace the battery with a new one.
• The remote controller is too far away from the CBX-300, or there’s an obstacle between them (see page 12).
• The CBX-300’s remote control sensor is being subjected to bright light (inverter-type fluorescent light or sunlight).
• The CBX-300 is located behind the tinted glass doors of a audio rack or cabinet.
No sound is heard from your turntable.
• Make sure the turntable has a built-in phono equalizer. If the turntable doesn’t have a phono equalizer built-in, you
must provide one.
The timers don’t work.
• Make sure the clock has been set correctly (see page 40).
•Timed operation will fail if the CBX-300 is on at the specified On time, so make sure it’s set to Standby (see page 44).
• The timer may overlap with another timer. If you program several timers, make sure they don’t overlap (see page 42).
• If you press the [SLEEP] or [TIMER] button while a timed operation is in progress, the timer will be cancelled and
the CBX-300 won’t turn off at the specified Off time (see page 44).
• Make sure the timer is set to suitable volume setting (see page 44).
