Your RX5000 is designed for reliable service. However, if
you encounter a problem, refer to the section below before
making a service call.
The RX5000 will not power up...
• Make sure the VOLUME/OFF thumb wheel is turned on.
• Check all power cord connections.
• Check fuse in lighter socket adapter and replace if neces-
sary.
• Check lighter socket. Clean if dirty.
• Check your vehicle’s fuse panel (refer to your vehicle’s
manual).
When calibrating the compass, The RX5000 displays
COMPL ETE
instead of
TURN TWICE
...
• You are holding the CITY button for longer than 3 sec-
onds in step 1 of calibration (see Calibrating the RX5000,
page 5). Make sure you release the CITY button immedi-
ately when you hear the unit beep.
The RX5000 shows
DI S TO RT
. (Distortion) on the
display...
• A magnetic interference is compromising compass accu-
racy. The RX5000 will be accurate once the vehicle
has moved away from the source of interference. If the
DI S TO RT
. message is continuously displayed, it is
usually a sign that there has been a signicant change in
magnetic elds, and recalibration is necessary.
