What to do
Make sure the power cord is fully plugged into an operating electrical outlet.
Unplug the power cord from the AC wall outlet for 10 seconds and then reconnect it; this will reset
the system.
Tap the touch pad on the top of the system to see if the system turns on (page 8).
Turn the volume up.
.
Press Mute
Eject the CD and reload it.
Press AUX to listen to an external source connected to the AUX IN input.
Make sure the external source is turned on and the volume on the external source is turned up.
Disconnect headphones from the system (connecting headphones mutes the speakers).
If listening to an AM or FM source, try turning the Talk Radio mode on or off (page 10).
If listening to an AUX source, make sure you are using a stereo cable and that it is fully inserted.
Operate the remote control closer to the unit.
Check that the remote control battery is installed with positive (+) polarity facing up.
Replace the remote control battery.
Check for interference from fluorescent room lighting, sunlight, or dust or dirt on lens.
Try the unit in a different location.
Adjust the internal antenna by rotating the unit slightly one way and then the other.
Move the unit farther from a TV, refrigerator, halogen lamps, dimmer switches, or other electronic
equipment that generates electrical noise.
If neither suggestion works, you may be in an area of weak AM signal coverage.
Extend the power cord as much as possible. The power cord acts as an FM antenna. See "Con-
necting to power" on page 6.
See "Using an external antenna" on page 16.
Check that the CD source is selected or press CD. The CD icon should appear on the display.
Check that the CD was loaded label-side up.
Check that the disc surface is clean, If not, try cleaning it.
Check that an audio CD was loaded, not a DVD.
Try another disc.
