• Storage: Store the player in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Handling CDs: Always handle CDs by their edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches, which can affect playback quality.

5. Troubleshooting

  • If using Bluetooth, ensure the player is correctly paired and connected to your device, or that external Bluetooth speakers are paired to the player.
• Bluetooth connection issues:
  • Ensure the player is in Bluetooth mode.
  • Turn off and on the Bluetooth function on both the player and your external device.
  • Move the devices closer to each other to ensure they are within range.
