My Clearstart shows the sound icon on the screen but I hear no beeps when using the count down timer or any other time
The Ronstan Clear Start sport watch includes a feature that produces beeping sounds during the countdown timer and other timing functions. To resolve the issue of not hearing any beeps, please follow these troubleshooting steps:
1. Check the sound settings: Ensure that the sound signals are enabled. You can do this by pressing the sound icon on the screen. If the sound signals are disabled, press the sound icon again to enable them.
2. Verify the countdown timer settings: Make sure that the countdown timer is set correctly. Press and hold the "SET" button for 3 seconds to switch between count down and count up modes. Select the count down mode for the desired timing function.
3. Confirm the volume level: Check the volume level of the watch. If it is too low, adjust it by modifying the watch settings.
4. Test the sound signals: Perform a test by setting a short countdown time, such as 1 minute, and observe if the watch emits any beeps during the countdown.
5. Check the battery: Ensure that the batteries are correctly installed and have enough charge. If the batteries are low or depleted, replace them with new ones.

I can’t get my watch into race mode.
RF4054B. 9/22. It used to work but doesn’t now.
To activate the race mode on your Ronstan Clear Start watch, follow these steps:
1. To turn on the display, press and hold the [CLEAR] button. While holding [CLEAR], press and hold the [MODE], [SYNC], and [START/STOP] buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds.
2. Mount the race timer on your wrist or on the boat using M4 or 5/32" fasteners through the provided holes.
3. Press [SET] to activate the backlight function. Remember, frequent use of the backlight will drain the battery faster.
4. To switch between the Time and Racing modes, press and hold [MODE], then press [SYNC]. The watch will remember the last function or start sequence used when switching modes.
5. Use the [MODE] button to cycle through different Time functions: Time > Chronograph > Alarm. Press [SYNC] to switch between 12-hour and 24-hour time formats, and [START/STOP] to switch between Day-Month and Month-Day formats.
Please note that these instructions are general and may vary depending on your specific model of the Ronstan Clear Start watch.

I have had four of these and they lock up after about a year (which I assume is why the warranty is set at 1yr). Is there a way to revive them?
