Troubleshooting

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the set for repair.

If you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or
service centre.

WARNING: Under no circumstances should you try to repair the set yourself, as this
would invalidate the warranty.

Problem

Remedy

No sound

– Check if the AC/DC adapter is fully inserted into the
AC outlet and that its DC connector is properly inserted
into the 12 Volt DC input connector located at the rear
of the transmitter.
– Check if the audio source is switched on and tuned to
a channel with audio.
– Volume not adjusted. Adjust the volume on the audio
source/ transmitter to a higher level.
– Change the transmitter’s tuning frequency. Select one
of the 2 channels for best reception. We advise you to
select channel 1 as a first option.

Distorted sound

– Distance from the transmitter is too large.
Move closer to the transmitter.
– Interference from fluorescent lamps/ other radio
sources. Move transmitter elsewhere/ change the
transmitter’s channel.

Maintenance

– Do not leave the transmitter near heat sources.
Do not expose to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
moisture, rain or any kind of mechanical shock.
– Do not use alcohol, thinner or petroleum-based
substances to clean the transmitter. Use a slightly
dampened chamois cloth to clean the housing.
– Do not use cleaning agents containing alcohol, spirits,
ammonia or abrasives as these may harm the housing.
