Philips intelligent remote control manual Problems using the recharging dock

Page 71

THE CONFIGURATION FILE IS CORRUPTED

The remote control has a configuration file that stores all of your custom devices, commands, and macros. In the extremely unlikely event that this configuration file gets damaged, the remote control displays a message asking you to revert to the original configuration. If you see this message, you must revert in order to continue using the remote control. All your custom devices, commands, and macros will be lost, so you will need to reprogram the remote control.

THE REMOTE CONTROL ERROR MESSAGES

The following error messages indicate a problem with the configuration file where your custom commands are stored. Contact your dealer or Philips customer service if one of the following messages appears on the display:

Can’t open configuration file

Configuration file error

No configuration file found

Invalid configuration file version

Problems using the recharging dock

THE BATTERIES WON’T RECHARGE

Make sure you’re using the special battery pack that comes with the recharging dock. Ordinary AA batteries can’t be recharged using the dock.

THE INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHES

Make sure the contacts on the charger and on the back of the remote control are clean (see picture on page 14) and there are no obstructions between them.

Make sure the remote control is properly seated on the dock.

Confirm that the rechargeable battery pack is installed properly in the remote control.

IMPORTANT If the remote control becomes very hot while resting on the recharging dock, remove it.
