CARE AND MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING
–
Keep the product dry. If it does get wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
–
Keep the product away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear
of parts.
–
Handle the product gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit
boards and cases, and can cause the product to work improperly.
–
Wipe the product with a dampened cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean
the product.
–
Use and store the product only in normal temperature environments. High
temperature can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries,
and distort or melt plastic parts.
Ignition
Interference
The most common source of noise in reception is the ignition system. This is a
result of the radio being placed close to the ignition system (engine). This type of
noise can be easily detected because it will vary in intensity of pitch with the
speed of the engine.
Usually, the ignition noise can be suppressed considerably by using a radio
suppression type high voltage ignition wire and suppressor resistor in the
ignition system. (Most vessels employ this wire and resistor but it may be
necessary to check them for correct operation.) Another method of suppression
is the use of additional noise suppressors. These can be obtained from most
CB/A radio or electronic supply shops.
Radio reception in a moving environment is very different from reception in a
stationary environment (home). It is very important to understand the difference.
AM reception will deteriorate when passing under a bridge or when passing
under high voltage lines. Although AM is subject to environmental noise, it has
the ability to receive at great distance. This is because broadcasting signals
follow the curvature of the earth and are reflected back by the upper atmosphere.

connected devices.
On your smart device, turn the Bluetooth off and on and try
again.
Check to make sure disc is inserted correctly.
Verify disc is free from dirt, scratches, etc.

various copy-protection, multimedia content, etc.).
Verify you are tuned to a valid station.
Check your antenna connection on rear of stereo.
Try a different antenna
Make sure the HDMI cable is routed from the HDMI output to
the input on the television.
Verify that you have a clear line of sight for the IR signal.
Check the batteries.
