2 Install the batteries (size "AA", R6, UM-3) with correct

polarity. Follow the diagram in the compartment.

3 Slide the lid in the direction of the arrow until it clicks.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

When the operating distance of the remote control noticeably decreases, the batteries are exhausted. Immediately replace the batteries with new ones.

÷ Do not use an old battery together with a new one. ÷ Install the same type of batteries at the same time. Do not use

different kinds of batteries (carbon, alkaline, Ni-Cd, etc.) at the same time even though they are the same shape.

÷ There are two kinds of batteries in the market: rechargeable

and non-rechargeable. Read the caution labels on the battery carefully.

BATTERY SAFETY

Incorrect use of the battery can cause leakage or explosion. Proper handing and use of batteries are as follows: ÷ When the remote control will not be used for an extended

period of time, remove the batteries.

÷ Never disassemble, heat or throw a battery into a fire. ÷ Do not connect (short circuit) the (+) and (–) poles of a battery

with a piece of wire, metal, etc. In case of leakage, thoroughly wipe off all the electrolyte from the battery compartment and install new batteries.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION RANGE

The remote control transmitter uses infrared light to control the unit. Therefore, to function properly, there must be a clear, unobstructed path between the transmitter and the sensor on the deck. The normal operating range is about 7 meters (23 feet) and within 30 degrees perpendicular to the front panel.

Remote sensor

Note

Be careful not to expose the infrared signal receptor to direct sunlight or strong light. If strong light is applied, the remote control transmitter may not function or may be difficult to operate.
