Remote Control

You can access all of the DPF’s features, and perform all of the functions by using the remote control. You will be able to perform several functions with the remote c o ntrol that are not possible with the top-back panel control buttons.

Note: Before first time use, pull the plastic tab

sticking out of the remote control. It protects the battery and the remote control will not work unless it is removed.

Store Remote Control

You can avoid misplacing the remote control by safely storing it on the back of the DPF when not in use.

The top back of the remote control has a built-in magnet and the back of the DPF has a ‘magnetic area’ so you can simply attach the remote control to the back of the DPF for safe keeping.

TIP: Remove sticker before use.

Replace the Remote Control Battery

1. Hold the remote control with the buttons facing down.

2. Push and hold the small release tab while pulling the battery tray out.

3. Replace the “CR2025” Lithium battery on the tray with the positive (+) side facing up.

4. Push the tray back in until it clicks into place.

Control Buttons on DPF

the use of the remot e control. However, you can use the frame control buttons when the
