Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing problems with your radio, there are some quick and easy checks that you can do, which may help to solve the problem.

No sound / power:

Adjust the volume using the rotary control on your radio.

Check that the mains power wall socket is switched on, the power switch on the back of the radio is On and that your radio is not in Standby mode.

You may have headphones connected. Either use the headphones to listen to your radio or unplug the headphones.

If you have batteries fitted, they may be exhausted and need to be replaced. Please use only good quality C size batteries.

Radio reception is poor:

Fully extend the aerial to get the best reception and sound quality. Retune for radio stations, see pages 22 and 27.

Try moving your radio to another location to see if reception improves. Check that you do not have other electrical equipment too close to your Radio, causing interference. Visit www.digitalradionow.com for information about DAB reception in your area.

Unable to pair with a Bluetooth device:

Check that you are in Bluetooth mode. Ensure that you are within range of the radio for Bluetooth functionality, 10 metres or less (33 feet or less).

Move the radio and Bluetooth device away from other Bluetooth devices/electrical equipment. If possible, turn off other nearby Bluetooth devices or disable their Bluetooth functionality.
