is docked
Crackling sound from
speakers
Bad connection
A problem with your audio source
Check docking station connection (or the 3.5mm cable con-
nection if using). Make sure it’s using ‘line out’ ‘audio out’ or
‘headphone out’ from your source, NOT ‘speaker out’
Test the 3.5mm cable with another audio source eg CD
player, MP3 player
Sound is distorted Volume level on iTube is too high
Sound source is distorted
Turn it down a bit (well, if it makes it sound better…)
WAV and MIDI files are often poor quality and distortion
sounds worse through a quality system – try a different
audio source eg CD
Radio interference You may be too close to a radio tower Try moving the speakers to different positions
Remote control doesn’t
work
Low battery
Remote’s not in range or pointing the wrong way
Replace battery
Point the remote at the dock from no more than 20ft
