Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your device, please refer to the following common solutions:

  1. Weak Radio Signals:
    • Antenna: Try adjusting the antenna's length and angle for better reception.
    • Batteries: Weak batteries can affect signal strength. Ensure the radio is fully charged.
    • Tuning: Manually tune the radio slightly above or below the desired frequency to see if the signal improves.
    • Location: Move the radio to a different location, preferably near a window or higher up, to improve signal reception. Avoid placing the radio near electronic devices that might cause interference.
  2. Cannot Play Songs from USB Drive / TF Card:
    • File Format: Ensure the audio files are in MP3 format.
    • USB/TF Card Condition: The USB port or TF card slot may be damaged or dirty. Try cleaning the port/slot or using a different USB drive/TF card to rule out issues with the current one.
  3. Unable to Charge:
    • Please ensure you are using a 5V/1A adapter for charging. Check the USB cable for damage and try a different cable if necessary.
  4. How to Auto-Scan FM Channels:
    • Press the FM button to change to FM radio mode. The symbol "FM" will appear on the display screen.
    • Completely pull out the radio antenna, then long press the SCAN button for over 3 seconds. The numbers on the display screen will jump up quickly from 87.5, indicating auto-scanning. Do not perform any other operations during this time.
    • After 2-3 minutes, the product will finish scanning at 108.0. Once scanning is complete, it will automatically play the first channel found.
