Reset Button
Should your 74-200 become unresponsive to button entries or
does not work properly, a reset button has been added. This
button is accessed from the bottom of the 74-200. To activate this
function, use a long object such as a straightened paper clip.
Carefully insert this into the small hole marked “Reset”. When
you press the button inside the 74-200, you will feel a click. This
resets the Clock, Calendar and alarm time. This reset will not
affect the “SAME” codes entered.
