system maintenance
The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote is
powered by a small, lightweight 3-volt lithium battery (CR2032)
that will last approximately one year under normal use. When
the battery begins to weaken, operating range will be reduced
and the LED on the remote will dim. Refer to Transmitter
(Standard) Configuration for battery access.
