Moment arrived yesterday and I want to drive my car over it

It may need a mains grounding kit installing with it. Ask your dealer...

Definitely get your dealer to check it out and replace it if needed.  It's guaranteed after all.

As to working straight from the box - I agree it should ideally be like that but when software is changed/upgraded after a unit has left the factory, it's not always that simple.  Seals on boxes need to be broken and then that raises suspicions for the buyer - I won't buy anything with a broken seal on a box.  

I've just bought a new iPad Air II recently and had the same issue - it needed to by upgraded to the latest software.  This is so easy to do and will be ongoing for the lifetime of the product as new features arrive.  The Moment and other B&O products are the same and will constantly need upgrading and there will be a crossover for items held in stock by dealers which will have older software.  I don't know, but it is possible that dealers are not allowed to do this software upgrade so it has to be dopne by the buyer.  This should however be clarified by the dealer.

It does sound as if this unit may have some sensitivity issues.  Alternatively, the owner may not be operating it quite right in terms of actions/swipes etc.  

First port of call is the dealer to either replace, check the unit or give a demonstration on how to use it properly to at least show the unit is defective or not.

Thanks for all your input. I have managed to solve the issue by resetting the Jukebox with a paper clip as suggested in the manual provided on this forum. 😀

Fantastic news.  I hope you enjoy the 'Moment'.  A possible future purchase of mine.  Glad it was so easy to sort out.

Certainly easier that driving your car over it 😇

And a great shame as after a few weeks and software update I absolutely love mine. It's on right now. Perfect integration of a new and digital age into classic bang and Olufsen system we all love.

I have waited many years for a device that would allow me to ditch AirPlay and have a more built in experience and finally it's here.

There is a tv - and there is a BV.

So his moment with the moment only lasted a moment 😐
