If the sound is poor when you first turn on the power, condensation may have formed on the internal lens due to humidity. Let the unit dry for about 1 hour with the power on.
What does it mean when my Clarion Marine Equipment displays "No File" and there is no sound?
If the display shows "No File" and there is no sound, it means that no MP3/WMA files are stored on the USB device. Store these files properly on the USB device.
