7. TROUBLESHOOTING
Your Atlantic is designed to provide you with years of optimal performance. If for some reason problems
arise, refer to this chapter before contacting a service centre in your region.
7.1 Reset
If your transceiver experiences a logical malfunction (improper symbols on the display, blocking of
functions, etc.), it may not be experiencing a true failure, but rather a problem caused by external factors.
For example, it may have an incorrect setting brought on by a noise or spikes in the electrical system
during battery recharging. In such cases, you can reset the transceiver to its factory-programmed settings,
by resetting all parameters:
1) Turn off the transceiver
2) Remove the batteries for about 60 seconds (Par.4.2)
Before you go ahead with the reset, we recommend that you take note of all the setting you
have carried out as they will be deleted.
