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.
