Troubleshooting Guide
Problem: Remote control functions do not work at all.
• Possible Cause: Use of the wrong mode (TV/Video/Learning)
Action:
Make sure the watch is in the TV Mode when you are trying to control a
TV, in the Video Mode when you are trying to control a video tape deck,
or in the Learning Mode when you are trying to control a unit whose
data you have stored using the Learning Mode. See “About the
Timekeeping sub-modes” for details on changing modes.
• Possible Cause: Wrong manufacturer code
Action: You must set the correct manufacturer code for the type of TV or video
tape deck you are trying to control. See “To set the manufacturer code”.
• Possible Cause:
The path between the signal emitter and device you are trying
to control is blocked or too long (more than five meters).
Action: Make sure that the path between the watchs signal emitter and the
signal receiver of the device being controlled is not blocked b clothing,
your hand, furniture, etc. Reduce the distance between the signal
emitter and device if necessary.
• Possible Cause: Your TV or video tape deck is not equipped with an infrared
remote control system.
Action: Use this watch only with TVs or video tape decks equipped with an
infrared remote control system.
• Possible Cause: The main power switch of the TV, video tape deck, or other
device is switched off.
Action: Use the main power switch to switch power on.
• Possible Cause: Manufacturer codes and Learning Mode data were altered
by battery replacement.
Action: Replacing the battery will cause the remote control data setting (TV
and video tape deck manufacturer codes, and Learning Mode data) to
be altered. Re-input the codes.
Problem: Some remote control functions do not work.
• Possible Cause: Improper pointing of the watch’s signal emitter.
Action: Make sure that the signal emitter is pointing directly at the device you
are controlling.
• Possible Cause: Use of button on the watch for which the TV/video tape deck
does not have a corresponding function.
Action: Some TV or tape deck models may not have functions that correspond
to the functions provided on the watch.
• Possible Cause: Direct sunlight shining on the infrared signal receiver port on
the TV or video deck.
Action: Take action so that direct sunlight does not shine on the infrared signal
receiver port on the TV or video deck.
Problem: Video deck functions do not work at all.
• Possible Cause: Your video tape deck might have a dual code (A Code/B
Code or Video 1/Video 2) remote control receiver.
Action: Try switching the setting (between A Code/B Code or Video 1/Video 2)
on your video tape deck until you find the correct setting for use with
the watch.
Problem: Cannot store Learning Mode data.
• Possible Cause: The remote control unit whose signals you are trying to store
is not an infrared type remote control unit.
Action: Use this watch only with devices equipped with infrared remote control
system.
• Possible Cause: The watch is not set up correctly to store data.
Action: This watch can store data in the Learning Mode only as long as one of
the key markings is flashing on the display. Perform the Learning Mode
operation correctly so that a key marking is flashing on the display.
• Possible Cause: The watch and remote control unit are not facing correctly or
they are too far from each other.
Action: Position the signal emitter of the remote control unit so that it faces
directly at the signal emitter of the watch. Make sure that the remote
control unit and watch are about three centimeters apart.
••
••
• Possible Cause: Error during storage of Learning Mode data (indicated by
“Er” message).
Action: Take care that you do not move the watch or the remote control unit
you are using while storing Learning Mode data. Otherwise, you may
be using a remote control unit whose infrared signals are incompatible
with this watch’s memory.
••
••
• Possible Cause: Memory full (indicated by “FL” message).
Action: Delete data that you no longer need to make room for new data.
Problem: Learning Mode operation does not work.
••
••
• Possible Cause: Improper storage of Learning Mode data.
Action: Check the display of key markings on the screen that appears when
storing Learning Mode data. If the marking of the button you are trying
to use appears on the display, it means that Learning Mode data is not
assigned to that button. Perform the correct procedure to assign data
to that button.
••
••
• Possible Cause: Operation of a button to which no Learning Mode data was
stored.
Action: Correctly store Learning Mode data.
