Troubleshooting
Possible Problem
Decrease the volume
If the iPhone/iPod original sound source (MP3) is old or of poor quality,
distortion and noise are easily noticed with high-power speakers. Try a
different audio source such as a music CD.
If you are using an external sound source like older generation of iPod
or iPod Shuffle, try reducing the output volume on the device itself. Also
try turning bass boost OFF.
Lower EQ settings.
Turn unit off for awhile or lower volume
Press and hold Snooze button then press + or - button to adjust
When setting clock or alarm time, take note of the AM/PM indicators
Make sure to set the alarm time and source for the alarm icon 1 or 2
that is shown on the clock display
7 days is every day alarm, 5 days is Mon-Fri, and 2 days is Sat-Sun. See
page 5 for setting alarms.
