Getting Started
System maintenance
The system requires no specific maintenance beyond battery replacement for the remote controls. Your remote is powered by a coin cell
battery (3V CR2032) that lasts approximately one year under normal
use. When the battery begins to weaken operating range is reduced
and the LED on the remote dims.
Battery replacement
Locate the small slot on the side of the remote control. Insert a small
slotted screwdriver or equivalent tool into slot and pry the case apart.
Replace battery while verifying the correct polarity and then snap case
together.
