I noticed something similar after finding my battery flat fairly recently. All OK now without any intervention but took a few days to resync.

I never lost a mast symbol in all these years. Not a single time.
Car is regularly on the road though. If cluster was without power it may have lost one hour shift between Germany and UK, which is very easy to correct as soon as mast symbol returns.

Follow Sergey's instructions for resetting the clock by pulling the instrument cluster fuse and it should then re-sync fairly quickly after leaving it parked up for a couple of hours.
I had odd behaviour from mine once, after it was left parked in the garage for several weeks, and this was the only way to resolve.

My mast symbol eventually returned after a week or two, but no amount of fuse pulling and 'tricking' the clock would force it. Like when I first installed it, I just had to let it find the signal on its own. Interestingly, on both occasions, it took much more than the 3 days that Sergey's write suggests is when it should 'forget' that it's there.
RS6 - I'd be happy to help fit one if you're not far from NG13 post code (but I've not fitted the receiver to the spot where Sergey's is - that's a bit trickier, although I have heard that ther's a 'short cut' to pulling out all the back of the dash!

Mine, as mentioned earlier, is behind the dash to the left of the steering column, immediately above the removable knee panel; works fine. Held by blu-tak!
To fit it there you "only" have to remove the knee panel and the socket on the back of the instruments is accessible from behind. That "should" just involve unclipping the small trim below the steering column and undoing a few (5?) screws/bolts to remove the knee panel. PS James (RS6) is down in Fareham, nowhere near you Jim.

I'm a lot nearer than Jim, but others may be closer.
Do you have the unit yet?
