Hello All,
Our remote has just started to have a “bumpy” bit when turning up the volume. Anyone had this condition as a hardware issue? Did we just get some crumbs into the inner circle of the dial? Dunno.
But it certainly is a bummer so may take it apart to see.
Your thoughts most welcome.
Best

I opened mine up and there's a little wheel inside running along side the larger wheel. The little wheel has a rubber ring around it so that the large wheel turns the smaller one by friction. That rubber can get dirty and start slipping. I cleaned mine once and that worked. Although by your description I would say there's something stuck on the rubber and it comes back every 'round'
Mine also fell and then stopped working altogether. I took it to the dealer who sent it to the importer. They refused warranty because I had opened it. Instead of refusing warranty because it had fallen. So if I were you I would not open it but take it to the dealer. Don't call Devialet apparently... there's a thread about that.

My 440-Pro CI Remote died this afternoon. I had installed brandnew AAA Energizer Lithium batteries this September and no way would those have died .. upon checking the voltage of those cells, still no life. I tried to pair my remote but it wouldn't respond either.
I then turned off my Devialets, re-installed the software and powered up the 400-Pro CI. Got the remote next to it and paired it. It responded. Finally, the Remote is again UP & Ready to perform ...
