batteries (not included).

WARNING:
- Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly. Wrong polarity may damage the unit.

- Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommend are to be used.

Power of Main unit Connection
The unit is designed by an internal AC power. Insert the AC cord into a convenient AC wall
outlet.
NOTE: This unit is not magnetically shielded and may cause color distortion on the screen
of some TVs or video monitors. To avoid this, you may need to move the unit further away
from the TV or monitor if unnatural color shifts or image distortion occurs.
PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE!!
This system is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving
when you operate the controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non-migrating rubber material
specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However
certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may
cause the rubber ‘feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture.
To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small
self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement centers
everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber ‘feet’ before you place the
product on fine wooden furniture.
