Troubleshooting
Most difficulties in audio systems are the result of incorrect con-
nections, or improper control settings. If you encounter problems,
isolate the area of the difficulty, check the control settings, deter-
mine the cause of the fault and make the necessary changes. If
you experience problems with the RCC-955, refer to the sugges-
tions for the following conditions:
Display Is Not Lit
The Disc, Track and Time indicators in the display should be lit
whenever the power switch of the RCC-955 is pushed in. If the dis-
play does not light, test the power outlet with another electrical
device, such as a lamp. Be sure the power outlet being used is not
controlled by a switch that has been turned off.
Fuse Replacement
If another electrical device works when plugged into the power
outlet, but the RCC-955 display will not light when the power
switch is pushed in, it indicates that the internal power fuse may
have blown. If you believe this has happened, contact your autho-
rized Rotel dealer to get the fuse replaced.
Disc Does Not Play
If a disc does not begin playing when the Play button is pressed,
open the disc tray and be sure the disc is loaded with the label
side up. If a disc is properly loaded inspect the playing side of the
disc for contamination or damage. If the disc is dirty, clean it as
described in the Handling Compact Discs section. If a disc is dam-
aged it should be replaced.
No Sound
Check the input selector on the amplifier to be sure it is properly
set. Check the tape monitor switches to be sure they are properly
set. Check other signal sources to be sure the amplifier is operat-
ing properly. Finally check the audio cables between the RCC-955
and the amplifier to be sure they are properly connected.
Sound Skips
If the sound from the RCC-955 skips or jumps around, the disc may
be defective or dirty. If the disc is clean, try another disc. If a
problem persists it could be caused by vibrations reaching the
RCC-955. Sound vibrations, especially from a subwoofer, can in-
terfere with the laser reading a disc surface. Move the RCC-955 to
a more stable surface, or to a location farther away from the
speakers.
Hum
Hum is caused by electrical interference from other devices. It is
most often picked up by the audio signal cables. Use high-quality
cables. Low quality cables often have inadequate shielding. Check
to be sure the cables are solidly connected to both the RCC-955
and the amplifier. Try moving the cables to a position farther away
from other electrical components, especially power amplifiers
which have large power transformers. Other devices that com-
monly cause interference are fluorescent lights and light dimmer
controls.
