optical” appears.
If the [Options] - [Audio Out] option is set to [Line/Optical], you
cannot adjust the volume.
The backlight of the display
window and control panel
does not light up even though
you stand in front of this
device.
If this device is in standby mode, the backlight does not light up
automatically because the sensor is not working.
If the air temperature is almost the same as your body temperature, it
is difficult for the sensor to detect your presence, so the backlight may
not light up automatically. Press the LIGHT button.
The latter part of the music
title, radio station name, etc.
does not appear.
By system limitations, the display window displays up to about 120
characters (PC Streaming Function/Web Radio Function) or 60
characters (Internal Memory Function) for one title.
