REMOTE CONTROL

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

• Point the remote control at the REMOTE SENSOR located on the unit.

• When using this unit in very bright light, the infrared REMOTE CONTROL SENSOR may not
work properly.

• The recommended effective distance for using the remote control is about 16 feet (5 meters).

TO CHANGE THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY

1. Open the battery door. 2. Insert two “AAA” batteries.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

When the batteries become weak, the operating distance of the remote control will be greatly
reduced and you will need to replace the batteries.

Note: • If the Remote Control is not going to be used for a long time, remove the batteries to

avoid damage caused by battery leakage corrosion.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix ALKALINE, standard (CARBON-ZINC) or
rechargeable (NICKEL-CADMIUM) batteries.

WARNING: Do not dispose of batteries in a fire or they may leak and/or explode.

Many universal remote controls have a “learning” feature, we recommend you use that feature
to program the remote control.

For any questions or problems related to programming a universal remote control, you must
contact the customer service department of the universal remote control manufacturer for
assistance, or refer to the instructions included with the universal remote control. We cannot
offer assistance in programming universal remote controls.
