Precautions to Take when Using the Magic Remote Control

yyUse the Magic remote control within the maximum communication distance (10 m, 32.8ft). Using the remote control beyond this distance, or with an object obstructing it, may cause a communication failure.

yyA communication failure may occur due to nearby devices. Electrical devices such as a microwave oven or wireless LAN product may cause interference, as these use the same bandwidth (2.4 GHz) as the Magic remote control.

yyThe Magic remote control may be damaged or may malfunction if it is dropped or receives a heavy impact.

yyTake care not to bump into nearby furniture or other people when using the Magic remote control.

yyManufacturer and installer cannot provide service related to human safety as the applicable wireless device has possibility of electric wave interference.

yyIt is recommended that an Access Point (AP) be located more than 1 m (3.28 ft) away from the TV. If the AP is installed closer than 1 m (3.28 ft), the Magic remote control may not perform as expected due to frequency interference.
