TROUBLESHOOTING
If a fault occurs, run through the points listed below before taking your player for repair.
If the fault remains, try to clear it by switching the player off and on again. If this also fails to help, consult your
dealer.
Under no circumstances should you repair the player yourself as this will invalidate the guarantee!
