Accessories

Make sure that you have all of the following items, which are supplied with the System.

AM Loop Antenna (1)
FM Wire Antenna (1)
Remote Control (1)
Batteries (2)

If any of these items are missing, contact your dealer immediately.

How To Put Batteries In the Remote Control

Match the polarity (+ and –) on the batteries with the + and – markings in the battery compartment.

CAUTION:

• Handle batteries properly.

To avoid battery leakage or explosion:
• Remove batteries when the Remote Control will not be used for a long time.
• When you need to replace the batteries, replace both batteries at the same time with new ones.
• Do not use an old battery with a new one.
• Do not use different types of batteries together.

Using the Remote Control

The Remote Control makes it easy to use many of the functions of the System from a distance of up to 7m (23 feet) away.
You need to point the Remote Control at the remote sensor on the System’s front panel.
