Self-Diagnosis Function

The deck's self-diagnosis function automatically checks the condition of the MD deck when an error occurs, then issues a
three-digit code and an error message on the display. If the code and message alternate, find them in the following table
and perform the indicated countermeasure. Should the problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Three-digit code/Message Cause/Remedy
C11/Protected The inserted MD is record-protected.
, Take out the MD and close the record-protect slot (page 16).
C13/REC Error The recording was not made properly.
, Set the deck in a stable surface, and repeat the recording procedure.
The inserted MD is dirty (with smudges, fingerprints, etc.), scratched, or substandard in quality.
, Replace the disc and repeat the recording procedure.
C13/Read Error The deck could not read the TOC on the MD properly.
, Take out the MD and insert it again.
C14/Toc Error The deck could not read the TOC on the MD properly.

the recording.
While recording from a digital component connected through the DIGITAL IN connector, the digital
connecting cable was unplugged or the digital component turned off.
