8 TROUBLESHOOTING
8-1 Error Indication
Error indications are shown on the display whenever
condensation occurs or there are problems with cassette
loading, unloading or mechanism operation.
5
When a problem occurs, the error indication "E-**" lights
(when the <WARNING> menu switch in <F. DISP> is
set to "ON").
5
When any one of error indications (E-01 – E-08) is
shown, a 12 V warning signal is output from the rear
panel's WARNING OUT connector.
5
When the <WARNING> menu switch in <BUZZER> is set to
"ON", the buzzer sounds if a problem occurs (E-01 – E-08
and E-11 (during recording)).
When an error indication appears or the buzzer sounds,
turn the operating mode on again to clear the error
indication and buzzer sound (E-01 – E-07).
When the error indication "E-**" is shown, turning the
operating mode on again may not clear the problem. In
this case, consult your local JVC dealer.
