the instructions and have printed to your bloody useless profile to
get these results and I never said anything about adjusting anything
on screen your produst supposed to do it automatically,don't send any
replies to this I am selling your product on and would never ever
encourage anyone to purchase them they are rubbish and also the so
called technical responce is the same.........repeat no reply needed
from you
