About Battery

A 9V battery is included in the package in purpose of testing. If it is powered by battery, change a new battery I when the LED goes dim. To save battery life, unplug the cable from the In jack when it is not in use. A high quality pedal power adaptor (optional NUX ACD-006A) is strongly recommended.

Troubleshooting

Power Does Not Turn On

• Check if the adaptor is connected correctly and securely of not.
• If it is powered by battery, try a fresh battery.
• Check if the In jack is plugged in.

No Sound

• Try to plug the instrument directly into this pedal and output this pedal directly to the amp, and make sure the volume of the instrument and the amplifier is turned on. ‘Check if all the cable connections are good and secure.

Poor Sound Quality

• Make sure all the cables are securely plugged into the pedal, guitar and the playback device, i.e. amplifiers.
• Make sure the power adaptor is with the correct specifications (DC 9V, minimum 300mA,  ).
• If it is powered by battery, try a new battery. For longest battery life, we suggest new, high quality ALKALINE battery.

Effects are not responding to knob settings

• Check if you are under Preset mode. Try to set the toggle switch to Normal or Tail position, turn off the power and power on again.
• Check if the toggle switch is in T.Lock position. If yes, set it to Normal or Tail position.
