Moisture condensation occurs during the following cases.

When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm place. When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit. In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room. When you use the unit in a humid place.

Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.

If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the unit will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

REMOTE CONTROL

Open the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow.

Install two “AAA/R03/UM-4” (penlight size) batteries, paying attention to the polarity diagram in the battery compartment.

Replace the cover.

BATTERY CAUTIONS

• Use two "AAA/R03/UM-4" size penlight batteries for the remote control transmitter.

• The batteries may last approximately one year depending on how much the remote control is used. For best

performance it is recommended batteries be replaced on a yearly basis, or when remote operation becomes erratic.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Weak batteries can leak and severely damage the remote control transmitter. Always remove batteries as

soon as they become weak.

EFFECTIVE DISTANCE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

NOTES: • When direct sunlight, an incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp or any other strong light shines on the

remote sensor, the remote operation may be unstable.

• When there is an obstacle between the unit and the transmitter, the remote control transmitter may not

operate.
