Troubles sometimes are caused by simple “faults” that you can correct without the help of a service technician. If you experience any difficulty with your monitor, check a few basic remedies before calling your service technician.

•Check to make sure it is plugged in.
•Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure it is “live” by plugging in something else.
•Maybe batteries in remote control are “dead.”
•Maybe remote control is not aimed at remote sensor.
