5.2 Troubleshooting
If you doubt that your VHF system works properly, it is of great importance that you find the
reason and assure that the equipment is properly serviced if any of the devices are failing.
You should contact your authorized dealer for tecnical support of your equipment. But, before
you do that you have a list of actions you can go through to fix the problem by yourself and
save time.
5.2.1 Power failure
Symptom: Radio is automatically turned off.
5.2.1.1 Ship power
In some installations ship power might occasionally disappear for a short time, e.g. if
switching between land power or generator power. Your equipment will shut down immedi-
ately when power is failing. If the power does not arrive within 10 minutes the radio cannot be
extected to start up automatically.
5.2.1.2 Fuses
If a push on the on/off button does not turn on the radio, and ship power is present, a fuse
might need replacement. The main fuse is located on the rear side of the radio (see Figure
XX). The shield is removed and the fuse is simply replaced with a new one.

5.2.2 Self Test
Symptom: Radio operation is difficult.
It is possible to do self testing on the equipment user interface. Any entry means and
readouts can be verified in the self test. The test is executed from menu 6.
If any of the following tests are failing you should contact your authorized dealer for service.
5.2.2.1 Key Test
All push buttons can be checked using the self test in menu 6.1. Pressing or releasing any
key on the front will be echoed in the graphic display. Only exception is DISTRESS and On/
Off - that will maintain their functionality. These buttons periodically be pushed for a short
time to check they are functional. Pressing <menu twice will exit the test.
