Troubleshooting

No power when plugged in.

Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the unit and the wall outlet. Try a different power outlet. Check if the power switch on the unit is in the 'On' position.

Bluetooth device not connecting.

Ensure the system is in Bluetooth pairing mode. Make sure the Bluetooth device is within range (10m). Turn off and on Bluetooth on your device and try again. Reset the system's Bluetooth connection by turning the system off and on.

Poor radio reception.

Adjust the position of the FM antenna. For DAB, try repositioning the unit to a different location. Ensure the system is not placed near other electronic devices that might cause interference.

CD not playing.

Check that the disc is inserted correctly and is a compatible format (CD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3). Clean the disc surface. The player may need to be serviced if the issue persists.

Sound is distorted or weak.

Check the volume level on both the system and the source device. Ensure speaker cables are securely connected. If using Bluetooth, check the audio source quality. Clean speaker drivers if dust is visible.
