Q:  Why doesn't my DN-951FA/DN-961FA play CD-Extras (cd's with certain type of video or data and programs)?

A: The machine is expecting a music-only CD. Change Preset D6-5 from a "1" to a "0" to let it know to ignore the non-music portions of the disc

Q:  There is a grinding sound when the disc is installed.
What causes this and how can I fix it?

A:  If the optical pickup assembly is in the inner
most position (next to the platter), check the wires to
the "in" switch. Sometimes the wire will break away from the switch.

Q:  The cartridge does not slide in and out as easily as it used to.
Why?

A:  Over a period of time, a black soft paste-like substance builds up
on the disc holder mechanism.  Carefully scrape it away and the cartridge
should slide smoothly in and out.

Q:  When I put a compact disc in, it does not cue and the number 84 (or
85, 86, 87, 88) appears on the display.  What does this mean?

A:  No. 84:  Hardware Error
     No. 85:  Focus Error
     No. 86:  CLV Error
     No. 87:  Subcode Error
     No. 88:  Seek Error

Any number of things could cause these errors.
A dirty lens could cause a focus error. Worn bearings
can cause the CLV error.  A worn feed motor or jammed
gears can cause the seek error.   Audio Services 544 Central Drive - Suite 101 Virginia Beach, VA  23454 (757) 498-8277 (757) 498-9554 fax audserv@exis.net
