REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
• The included remote control unit (RC-970) can be used to operate not only the AVR-3805 but other remote
control compatible DENON components as well. In addition, the memory contains the control signals for
other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-DENON remote control compatible products.
Inserting the batteries
q Remove the remote control unit’s rear cover.
w Set three R03/AAA batteries in the battery
compartment in the indicated direction.
e Put the rear cover back on.
Notes on Batteries
• Use R03/AAA batteries in the remote control unit.
• The batteries should be replaced with new ones
approximately once a year, though this depends on
the frequency of usage.
• Even if less than a year has passed, replace the
batteries with new ones if the set does not operate
even when the remote control unit is operated
nearby the set. (The included battery is only for
verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as
soon as possible.)
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the
proper direction, following the “≈” and “√” marks
in the battery compartment.
• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:
• Do not use a new battery together with an old
one.
• Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or
dispose of batteries in flames.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit
when you do not plan to use it for an extended
period of time.
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the
fluid off the inside of the battery compartment and
insert new batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, have the new
batteries ready and insert them as quickly as
possible.
