Troubleshooting

Problem: None of the buttons on the remote control respond.
Solution: Did you press and hold the HOLD button? This locks the operation of all buttons
on the remote control. Hold the HOLD button for 3 seconds to turn the hold function on
or off.
Problem: The sound quality of the FM radio is not so good.
Solution: Your headphone cable acts as the antenna for the FM radio. Try moving the
cable or turning it toward another direction. You could also check to make sure the
correct region is selected under the parameter FM Band (USA, Europe, Japan).
Problem: My preset radio stations do not work correctly or are no longer available.
Solution: This could be due to the fact that either the fi le FMPreset.txt fi le has incorrect lines
in it or that this fi le had been deleted from the System folder of your Gmini. Make sure that
your text fi le has only 20 lines and that each line has a valid frequency, a space, and then
a text string that is up to 32 characters long. If you delete the fi le, the Gmini will re-create
a new, but empty, preset list.
Question: I always miss the beginning of the songs I want to record, what can I do?
Answer: Set the Retro-Record to On. This way, when you start a radio recording, the Gmini
will actually include the previous 30 seconds in the recording. You can then later edit out
the parts you don't want with the Audio Edit function.
Question: Why can't I edit all of my recorded music fi les?
Answer: For Gmini 100 & 200 only radio recordings can be edited. For Gmini 400, only
radio, microphone, and line-in recordings can be edited.
Question: How can I shut off my Gmini with the remote FM?
Answer: Hold down on the MP3/FM button for 3 seconds.
Question: How can I turn on my Gmini with the Remote FM?
Answer: This cannot be done. You must turn on the Gmini the normal way.
