Troubleshooting
If you encounter a difficulty while using your unit, use this troubleshooting guide as an aid to
remedy the problem. Because the unit contains a microcomputer to provide advanced functions, it
may malfunction due to external noise or static electricity. If this happens, disconnect the power
cord and then plug it in again after about 5 seconds. You must also be sure that the system
components are properly connected.
If the MD recorder still does not operate correctly, disconnect the power plug, then plug it in again
while pressing EDIT/NO button and YES button simultaneously. Note that any TOC information
held in this MD recorder will be erased by this operation. If the problem persists even after you try
this remedy, or it is not listed in the table, disconnect the power cord and then consult the shop
from which you purchased the unit or your nearest ONKYO service station, informing them of your
name, address, phone number, type of unit, and the details of the problem.

or operates poorly.
