Rhodes Chroma Polaris

From my understanding, when the batteries go flat you loose all the 
stored settings and have to go through an elaborate calibration 
procedure to get it going again.
(Section 6 in the Service Manual: What to do if you lose your memory)
I have a similar issue, but I can't recalibrate until I've replaced the 
membrane switches, as some of the (Vital) switches aren't working)
