Sony ZS-M35 Primary Operating Instructions Manual page 71

Symptom
The timer does not operate.
The remote does not function.
Operation may become unstable depending on the power supply or other causes because this
player employs a microcomputer to link each operation. If other troubles not described above
occur, disconnect the AC power cord from the wall outlet and take out the back-up
batteries. Press and hold POWER for about 30 seconds, then reinsert the back-up batteries
and connect the mains lead to the wall outlet again. (In this case, clock set, timer or preset
radio stations are reset to the initial settings. Set these items again if you need.) If the problem
persists, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Remedy
• Make sure the time on the clock is correct.
• Check to see if the AC power had been cut off.
• Make sure "TIMER" appears in the display.
• Check and change the preset start/stop time if
both times are set to the same time.
• Replace all the batteries in the remote with new
ones if they are weak (page 59).
• Make sure that you are pointing the remote at
the remote sensor on the player.
• Remove any obstacles in the path of the remote
and the player.
• Make sure the remote sensor is not exposed to
strong light such as direct sunlight or
fluorescent lamp light.
• Move closer to the player when using the
remote.
