CAUTIONS

The air conditioner will not operate if curtains, doors, or other materials
block the signals from the remote control to the indoor unit. Prevent any
liquid from falling into the remote control. Do not expose the remote
control to direct sunlight or heat.
If the infrared signal receiver on the indoor unit is exposed to direct
sunlight, the air conditioner may not function properly. Use curtains to
prevent sunlight from falling on the receiver.
If other electrical appliances react to the remote control, either move
those appliances or consult your local dealer.

Replacing batteries

The remote control is powered by two dry batteries (R03/LR03X2) housed in the
rear part and protected by a cover.
(1) Remove the cover by pressing it and sliding it off.
(2) Remove the old batteries and insert the new batteries, placing the (+) and (-)
ends correctly.
(3) Reattach the cover by sliding it back into position.

NOTE: When the batteries are removed, the remote control erases all progra-mming.
After new batteries are inserted, the remote control must be reprogrammed.

CAUTIONS

Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types.
Do not leave the batteries in the remote control if they will not be used for
2 or 3 months.
Do not dispose batteries as unsorted municipal waste. Collection of such
waste separately for special treatment is necessary.
