How do you set the cD Alarm volume ? Mine turns on at the lowest volume

I've never actually set the alarm so I did a quick Google search and found a link to the online manual which explains how to do it - http://store.sony.com/wcsstore/SonyStyleStorefrontAssetStore/pdf/warranty/SEL-asset-159708.pdf

I found all the settings the same way. I press and hold the Alarm A or B button, first I can set the time, pressing it again moves to where I can pick the Ipod or CD, the next features after pressing the button asks about volume and if there was a specific track I wanted to set it to. I wake to my Ipod at volume 8.

I don't recall but you can set the volume from very low to high. I sold mine as I bought it for my bmw which I sold. It is a great detector you can't go wrong with it.

When I use the alarm, I adjust the volume using the radio before bed. Otherwise, it will auto set. I hope that helps.

Do not forget one important step.... turn power on, and then - HOLD DOWN - and then turn tuning knob to get to "ON". Release and listen without interruption or automatic turn off in a preset time. This step is not clearly stated. Drive me NUTZ until I figured out what was not clearly stated. Must hold power button down to allow toggle to sleep timer adjustment.

To turn the volume down, press and hold the first round button, from the right side, and the volume will go down, and to turn it up press and hold the second round button...

you can go into the Audio and check speaker volume, I turned down the front 2 speakers and the center channel and turned up the rear volume; also when you play dvd or blu ray make sure you have set for 5.1 channel. Not all are set this way automatically. hope that is of some help

Hello, turning up the volume knob (the one on the right) powers up my device. Good luck!

Those are my sentiments exactly. I installed the alarm a little over a year ago and have looked around for something with a louder audible but have been unsuccessful in finding anything that will resolve the weak electronic chime that comes with the system. Maybe if the manufacturer gets enough requests for a louder more distinctive sound they will provide a replacement or at least market a chime that's louder

Yes. I have mine set with two alarms. The first one I set the sound level to level 1. What that means is as the light and sound gradually turn on, there is no sound until the very end. Then it is on at level one. Then the second one I set louder, because by then the light usually already wakes me up, so the sound lulls me out of bed if I haven't gotten up already.

I haven't touched the CD portion of it. I play music from my iPhone all the time... I also misplaced the guide and never reset the clock after a power outage. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Did u try google-ing for the manual first? That's what I would do but we got a manual with the cd player. Pretty much once u find the menu button u can do anything.

You can adjust between a full alarm and a beep. The beep is fairly loud, about once every two seconds. There is no way to adjust volume. I keep the base station by my bed, for monitoring at night, and I have reduced the volume by taping over the speaker on the base.

There is two things that I noticed that control the sound. Answering the yes/no prompt when setting the timer, and the black volume control on the side of the base. Maybe this will help.

I think the one we got was defective. I could never get the alarm set. sorry I can't answer your question.

The volume on mine is adjustable to a quite reasonable low volume, however the volume control is tiny and imprecise.

I have never set the alarm to use the radio to wake me up, so I am probably not much help to you. I do know that when I first turned on my radio I had to use the plus/minus buttons to raise the volume of the radio and since then when I turn on the radio it is at the apppropriate volume. Maybe if you turn the radio volume up to the level you want the alarm to be at, that will fix your problem. Not sure! Sorry! Hope you find a way to make it work. Although, the radio may start out low just like the other sounds do and build to a louder level. Have you let it go for a few seconds to see if it builds to a higher volume??
