Installing the Remote Control Batteries

Load the batteries as follows:

•  Insert small flat screwdriver or similar to remove the cover
•  Insert the batteries with their polarities aligned, as indicated inside the battery 

compartment and replace plastic cover.

Battery Life

Your remote control batteries under normal everyday use may last a period of  
six months, though it depends on how often the remote control is used.

Replace the batteries if you have to move closer to the Set Top Box before it 
functions.

Use good quality batteries and never try to recharge them, short, disassemble, and 

expose to heat or place them in fire.

Do not drop the remote control and avoid hard impacts, otherwise, parts of the 

Remote may be damaged which can lead to a malfunctioning Remote Control.

Do not use new and old batteries together.

Please remove the batteries if the remote control is not used for a long periods.  
This may lead to electrolyte leaking into the battery compartment, resulting in a 
malfunction or may even cause complete failure. Wipe the electrolyte carefully 
from the battery compartment of the remote control and install new batteries. 

Wash skin with clean water if exposed to any electrolyte.

Remote Control unit modes

The remote control unit has two modes:

•  IR mode (Default Mode - Red flash).  
•  RF4CE mode. (Once paired to the Set Top Box - Green flash).

Pairing / Un-pairing the Remote Control unit to the Set Top Box

Your remote control unit will require synchronisation with the Set Top Box. Follow the 
instructions in Section 7 of this User Manual – "First time start-up of the Set Top Box"
