  If the remote control of your Marantz CD Player isn't working, consider these potential causes: * Ensure the remote control is pointed directly at the remote sensor on the front of the player. * Check for any obstructions between the remote and the sensor. * Replace the batteries in the remote control unit if they are exhausted. * Ensure that there isn't any strong light (e.g., from a window) interfering with the player's remote sensor.
