Remote Control
The remote supplied with this unit can control the HCD-461
from a distance.
Battery life
About half a year of normal operation can be expected when
using the Sony SUM-3 (NS) batteries. When the batteries are
exhausted, the remote can no longer operate the unit. If this
happens, replace both batteries with new ones.
To avoid battery leakage
If the remote is not going to be used for a long time, remove
the batteries to avoid damage caused by battery leakage and
corrosion.
Inserting batteries into the remote
1
Open the cover.
2
Insert two size-AA (R6)
batteries with correct
polarity.
