Troubleshooting
If the unit fails to operate properly even when the remedial action suggested above has been taken:
This unit uses a microcomputer to perform a large number of operations. If it fails to operate no matter which button is pressed, disconnect the
power cord, and then wait a few moments before re-connecting it. Then set the time and re-program the timer.

with the actual recording.
