Frequently Asked Questions - MD-C2H SHARP

How do I connect the speakers to the MD-C2H system?

Connect the speaker wires to the speaker terminals on the back panel. Ensure correct polarity: red to positive (+), black to negative (-). Use the supplied speaker cables.

Can I play both CDs and MDs on this system?

Yes, the MD-C2H has a built-in CD player and a MiniDisc recorder/player. Use the corresponding buttons to select the desired source.

How do I record from a CD to an MD?

Insert a recordable MD, press the MD REC button, then start playback on the CD. The system will record in real-time. You can also use synchronized recording by pressing SYNC REC.

What should I do if the CD or MD player does not read discs?

First, ensure the disc is placed correctly and is clean. If the problem persists, try a lens cleaning disc. If still not working, the laser may need adjustment; contact a service center.

How do I preset radio stations on the MD-C2H?

Press the TUNER button, then use TUNING to find a station. Press MEMORY, then a preset number (1-30) to store it. Repeat for other stations.

Can I connect an external device like a smartphone?

Yes, use the AUX input (RCA jacks) on the back. Connect your device with a 3.5mm to RCA cable and select AUX as the source.

How do I clean the tape heads and pinch roller?

Use a cassette head cleaning kit (wet or dry). Insert the cleaning cassette and let it play for a few seconds. Do not use cotton swabs or alcohol.

What is the power consumption in standby mode?

In standby, the system consumes approximately 1-2 watts. It is recommended to turn off the main power if not used for long periods.

Why is there no sound from the speakers?

Check that the speakers are properly connected, the volume is not at minimum, and the correct source is selected. Also verify that the MUTE function is not active.

Where can I find the user manual for the MD-C2H?

The user manual is available for download on notice-facile.com in PDF format. You can also request a translated version by email.

! Moisture condensation

In the following cases, condensation may form inside the unit.

Shortly after turning on a heater.

When the unit is placed in a room where there is excessive steam or moisture.

When the unit is moved from a cool place to a warm place.

When the unit has condensation inside, the disc signals cannot be read, and the product may not function properly.

If this happens, remove the disc. The condensation should evaporate in approximately 1 hour. The unit will then function properly.

If a problem occurs

If this product is subjected to strong external interference (mechanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction or the display may not function correctly. If such a problem occurs, do the following:

● To erase all of the stored memory contents (clock and timer settings, and tuner, MD and CD presets). - If the display is not correct. - If the operation is not correct.

1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode.

2 Press the ON/STAND-BY button whilst holding down the ▶ button and the DELETE/CLEAR button.

Caution:

● The operation explained above will erase all data stored in memory including clock and timer settings, and tuner, MD and CD presets.

TRANSPORTING THE UNIT

Before you move this product to a new location, proceed as follows:

1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to turn the power on. 2 Remove all CDs, MDs and tapes inserted in the unit. ● Three CDs and three MDs can be inserted in the unit. Therefore, make sure that all of them are removed. 3 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode. 4 After "GOOD-BYE" has gone out, unplug the AC power lead from the AC socket.

MAINTENANCE

Internal care

● Dirty heads, capstan or pinch roller can cause poor sound and tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. ● After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions carefully before use.

External care

• Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap solution, then wipe with a dry cloth.
• Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other chemicals.
