The Remote Control
Take out the remote control handset from the package. Open the battery compartment.
Insert two batteries (1,5 V, size AAA). Please make sure the polarity matches the marks

Should the r/c start to work unreliably replace both batteries. We recommend using alcaline
batteries.

stand in the way between r/c and infrared sensor. The green operation LED will flash when
the unit receives signals from the remote control.
If you won’t use the r/c for a week or longer, please remove the batteries from the
compartment, to prevent damage by leakage.
Batteries must not be disposed by ordinary refuse disposal. Please lead empty
batteries towards appropriate collecting points. Never throw batteries into fire.
