Russound RFR-E5 Installation Manual

7

The  RFR-E5  is  powered  by  two  lithium-ion  rechargeable  batteries.  The 

batteries  are  accessed  by  removing  the  screw  on  the  battery  compartment 
door on the back of the remote control. 

NOTE:

 Before first use, the batteries must be installed in the RFR-E5 and 

charged for three hours by placing the remote in the cradle.

The battery charge level can be checked by reviewing the battery icon at 

the top of the home screen. A solid dark icon means the batteries are fully 
charged; a solid white icon means the batteries need to be charged. When 
the RFR-E5 remote is docked in its cradle, the battery icon scrolls to indicate 
charging and shows a solid black icon when charging is complete. 

If the RFR-E5 is left off the charging cradle for a long period of time, the 

batteries  will  eventually  go  dead.  If  this  happens,  dock  the  remote  in  the 
cradle, making sure the charging contacts fit snugly. The RFR-E5 screen will 
remain blank until it has enough power to display the battery icon.

Battery Use and Disposal Instructions

CAUTION:  Danger  of  explosion  if  the  batteries  are  improperly  replaced. 

Replace ONLY with the same type (Russound P/N E150-531217). Batteries 
are to be serviced by the installer only. 

This device contains a replaceable lithium-ion rechargeable battery. Battery 

life  is  dependent  upon  usage.  Heavy  daily  use  will  result  in  shorter  battery 
life.  Casual  use  will  extend  battery  life.  If  you  suspect  that  the  battery  may 
be  dead,  try  charging  it.  If  the  battery  does  not  recharge,  please  contact 
Russound  technical  support  for  repair  or  replacement  information.  If  you 
replace the battery, follow the proper disposal procedure. Consult local laws 
and regulations for proper battery disposal in your area. If there are no local 
regulations concerning battery disposal, please dispose of the dead battery 
in a waste bin for electronic devices. Refer to the safety instructions in this 
manual for more information.
