1. Check the Power Connection – Ensure the unit is properly plugged into a working power outlet. 2. Verify the Battery Backup – If the clock settings were lost, replace the backup battery if needed. 3. Reset the Clock and Alarms – Manually set the time and alarms again if they were lost. 4. Reconnect Bluetooth Devices – If Bluetooth connections were lost, re-pair your device. 5. Test Functions – Ensure the radio, CD player, and other features are working correctly.
If the unit is still not functioning properly, try unplugging it for a few minutes and then plugging it back in to reset it.
