Troubleshooting
Cannot tune. Or, tuning is difficult.
If you are using an electric instrument,
has the instrument volume been turned
down? Alternatively, has the volume been
raised excessively? Adjust the instrument
volume so that the meter becomes
stable.
If you are using an acoustic instrument,
try changing the distance or angle
between the built-in mic (or external mic)
and your instrument.
If the unit malfunctions, and turning
the power OFF and then ON does not
resolve the problem, remove and then
reinstall the battery.
