If you do not plan to use the remote for an extended period, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
WARNING: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
TO INSTALL BATTERIES:
1. Press the tab on the battery compartment cover (located on the back of the
remote) and lift off the cover.
2. Place the AAA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity
symbols (+ and –) marked inside.
3. Align the cover key with the compartment opening and replace the cover.
