Troubleshooting
□ Maintenance
Your product is designed and manufactured to en­
sure a minimum of maintenance. Use a soft cloth
for routine exterior cleaning. Never use benzine,
thinner, or other solvent.
□ Product Servicing
If the suggestions in the charts don't solve the
problem, we recommend that you take it to your
nearest authorized MSC{in Canada: Panasonic)
Servicenter. The unit shouid be serviced only by a
qualified technician.
□When Something Doesn’t Work
Check the charts for possible causes and solu­
tions to any problem you might be experiencing.
Some simple checks or minor adjustments may
eliminate the problem.
□ Repiacing the Fuse
Use fuses of the same specified rating (10 amps).
Using different substitutes or fuses with higher
ratings, or connecting the unit directly without a
fuse, could cause fire or damage to the stereo
unit.
If the replacement fuse fails, contact your nearest
MSC(in Canada; Panasonic) Servicenter for ser­
vice.
