Q: I set the date but the day is incorrect?

A: You may be setting up your unit in the European format. You have to set it up in the MM/DD/YY format. Try reversing the Month and Date and then after you press enter press the letter "A". The talking units can be set by going into the setup section and making sure you have it set MM/DD/YY.
 

Q: My screen looks scratched?
