Troubleshooting - Teac W-865R Manual Del Usuario

If you think that there is something wrong with this cassette
deck, make the checks listed below before contacting a repair
service. In some cases the problem may lie with another
component. Check all components.
If the problem cannot be solved with any of the following
checks, contact your nearest TEAC authorized service center or
your dealer for help.
Cannot switch on the power.
e Check the connection to the AC power supply. Check and
make sure the AC source is not a switched outlet and that,
if it is, the switch is turned on. Make sure there is power to
the AC outlet by plugging another item such as a lamp or
fan into the outlet.
No sound
e Check the connection to the amplifier.
e Check the amplifier settings.
The remote control does not work.
e Check that the deck is powered on.
e If the batteries have run out, replace both batteries.
e If there are obstacles between the deck and remote control,
remove them. Point the remote control at the remote sensor
of the deck from a distance of less than 5 meters.
e If the remote sensor of the deck is exposed to direct sunlight
or very bright light, the remote control may not work. If this
is the case, use the control buttons of the deck itself instead.

such as a TV or microwave oven.

equipment.

This cassette deck operates on a delicate microcomputer
and there may be occasions when the deck does not
function as expected because of external noise or
interference. Problems you encounter on such occasions
may be cured by turning off the power, waiting for 1
minute or more, then turning the power back on.
