Remote control handset RK18
The remote control handset sends its commands to the TV set with the aid of infra-red light.
For this reason, it must always be pointed towards the TV set in order to operate correctly.
Use of the remote control may possibly interfere with other devices or systems which are
controlled by infra-red signals (such as infra-red headphones).
The remote control handset may not operate correctly if the TV set is exposed to direct sunlight, because the TV set is not able to detect the infra-red s ignals. The TV set must be
switched on with its main switch before the remote control handset can be used.
Infra-red light! Do not point the remote control handset at your eyes and press
any of the buttons on it !
