How to make COMSOL re-check Paramters and Variables ?

How can I make COMSOL recheck a variable defined in Global Definitions?

I mis-typed an entry in the variables in the global definitions. I used this variable name to define a boundary temperature. COMSOL complained correctly that the unit was wrong.
I corrected the entry in the global variable definition, but the error message in the Heat Transfer module, where I use this variable is completely unaffected from any change i make there and states all the same for this variable name.

How can I make COMSOL re-check the contents of the variable in the module?

What error do you get in the heat transfer module?

It claims the units were wrong.
That was the case in my first definition, but was corrected later.

I could even change the unit in the variable from [s] to [km] and the message was still [1/s] was the wrong unit.
I could avoid the message easily by renaming the variable. So I suppose the old contents of the variable was not updated.
