Remote control preparation
Battery installation
Insert the batteries while observing the correct (+) and (–) polarities.
Service life of batteries
• The batteries normally last for about one year, although this depends
on how often, and for what operations, the remote control is used.
• If the remote control unit fails to work even when it is operated near
the player, replace the batteries.
• Use size “AA” batteries.
Notes:
• Do not use rechargeable (Ni-Cd) batteries.
• Do not attempt to recharge, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or throw
the batteries into fire.
• Do not drop, step on or otherwise impact the remote control unit. This
may damage the parts or lead to malfunction.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• If the remote control unit is not going to be used for a long time,
remove the batteries. Otherwise, leakage may lead not only to mal-
function, but also to skin burn.
• Wipe away any leakage inside the remote control unit, and install new
batteries.
• If leakage should come into contact with parts of your body, wash it off
thoroughly with water.
Remote control operation range (see fig. A)
Point the remote control unit from no more than about 7 m from the
remote control sensor and within about 60 degrees of the front of the
unit.
• The operating distance may vary according to the brightness of the
room.
Notes:
• Do not point bright lights at the remote control sensor.
• Do not place objects between the remote control unit and the remote
control sensor.
• Do not use this remote control unit while simultaneously operating the
remote control unit of any other equipment.
