    KV-AR14M50/AR14M80/AR14P52 RM-W101 SELF DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION The units in this manual contain a self diagnostic function. If an error occurs, the STANDBY (1) indicator will automatically begin to flash. A description of the self-diagnosis function is explained in the instruction manual. The number of times the STANDBY (1) indicator flashes translates to a probable source of the problem.
