Thanks Jackie, that works; it also works in reverse, if you hold down the
top button and it announces a colour, you can press the bottom button and it
will repeat the colour cycling through the volumes.

| Hi Andy
|
| Hold the Colorino in your hand face upwards so that the hole at the end of
| the unit, which is the spyhole for colour detection, is furthest away from
| you. Now, hold down the bottom button of the two on the front of the unit
| and press the top button while you do it. The volume will cycle through
| three levels while you do that, and the detector will make a buzzing
sound.
|
| I haven't needed to recalibrate it, but you must be able to do so, and I'm
| sure someone will know.
|
| Glad you like it. I think it's a fine little gadget.
