TROUBLE SHOOTING
Before going through the checklist below, please check all wiring
connections. If any of the problems persist after checking, consult your
nearest AXIS Car Audio service centre.
Symptom Cause Solution
No power The car ignition switch is not on. If the power supply is connected to the
accessory circuit, but the engine is not on,
switch the ignition key to “ACC”.
The fuse is blown. Replace the fuse with one of same amperage.
No sound Volume is set to minimum Adjust volume to a desired level.
Wiring is not properly connected. Check wiring connection.
Unit has frozen/operation
keys no longer work
The built-in microcomputer may
not operate properly due to
electrical noise.
RESET the unit (see page 6).
Poor radio reception The antenna cable is not
connected.
Insert the antenna cable firmly.
The radio station automatic
selection does not work
Replace with sensitive antenna.
Defective antenna
The signals are too weak. Select a station manually.
Factory antenna is amplified. Find antenna power wire in factory harness and
connect to accessory power.
Condensation appears on
inside of front glass panel
Playing the unit continuously at
high volume generates heat in this
sealed unit. This may react with
outside temperature.
Allow unit to cool down by reducing volume or
powering off.
Condensation should then dissipate.
NOTE: Due to the great variety of devices with USB interfaces that sometimes
have manufacturer-specific functions, we cannot guarantee that all media will be
recognized and operate on this multimedia unit.
