Troubleshooting
Your SKYFi Receiver is designed and built
to provide you with trouble-free perform-
ance without the need for service. If it does
not appear to be functioning correctly,
please follow these troubleshooting steps:
1. Make sure SKYFi is properly seated in
its cradle or stand.
2. Make sure all connectors are properly
attached in the back of the cradle or
stand.
3. If you are using the cigarette lighter/
auxiliary power adaptor to power your
SKYFi and cannot turn it on:
• Make sure the cigarette lighter/auxiliary
power socket is clean and free of
corrosion.
• Make sure the adaptor is firmly seated
in the cigarette lighter/auxiliary power
socket.
• Check the adaptor fuse by unscrewing
the ribbed end of the adaptor and
examining it. If required, replace with
a 1-amp fuse only. If your cigarette
lighter adaptor does not have a
removable end cap, then it is
equipped with an internal fuse that
resets itself after it is left unpowered
for a period of time.
4. If you are using the A/C adaptor in the
home or office, make sure it is plugged
in and that there is power at the outlet.
