Trouble Possible Cause Remedy
Reception is noisy, inter-
mittent, and the “ST” (FM
stereo) indicator flickers?
You’re too far away from the transmitter.
Or, your FM antenna is in the wrong posi-
tion or pointing in the wrong direction. Or,
the station’s signal strength is poor.
Switch the FM Mode to Mono (page 28).
Adjust the position, height, and direction of
your FM antenna.
Install an outdoor FM antenna, preferably
one with many elements. Installing an out-
door antenna is a specialist’s job, so contact
your nearest dealer for advice (page 13).
The radio presets no longer
work?
The power cord has not been connected to a
wall outlet, or the power has been turned off
for an extended period.
Preset your favourite radio stations again
(pages 26 and 29). The power cord must be
plugged into a wall outlet a few times each
month in order to preserve the presets
(page 4).
The RDS (Radio Data Sys-
tem) doesn’t seem to work?
The current FM station does not support
RDS. Tune into a station that supports RDS
(page 30).
The signal strength is poor, or there’s too
much interference.
Install an outdoor FM antenna (page 13),
change the position or direction of your out-
door FM antenna, and keep it away from flu-
orescent lights.

Install the CR-505DAB somewhere free of
vibration.

Load the disc with the label-side facing up
(page 20).
The disc is dirty. Remove the disc and clean it (page 36).

505DAB.

turned on for several hours until the conden-
sation has evaporated.
The CD-R/RW disc is nonstandard. See “Disc Notes” (page 35).

CD/MP3. It may take a longer time to read CD/MP3
with many track numbers.

ally.
The clock is wrong?

zone.
Set ACCUCLOCK to use a specific station

will turn itself off automatically when the
ACCUCLOCK function has calibrated the
clock.
