Troubleshooting

No power

Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the radio and a working outlet. If using batteries, check that they are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Try a different power outlet.

Poor or no radio reception

Extend the telescopic antenna fully and adjust its position. Move the radio to a different location, away from potential interference sources. For DAB/DAB+, try a full auto scan. Ensure you are within a viable broadcast area.

Sound distortion or low volume

Check the volume level. Ensure the tone control is not set to extreme bass or treble. If using headphones, check the connection. If connected via AUX, check the source device's volume.

Display is dim or unreadable

The backlight may be adjusted in the menu settings. Ensure the contrast is set appropriately. In very low light, the backlight should illuminate automatically.

Radio won't tune to stations

Perform an 'Auto Scan' for DAB/DAB+ stations or a 'Scan Tune' for FM. If reception is still poor, you may be in an area with weak signals. Check the manual tuning option.
