NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER

Battery installation

Battery replacement

When you notice a decrease in the operating range of the
remote control transmitter, the batteries are weak.  Replace
both batteries with new ones.

Notes

Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.

Be sure the polarities are correct.  (See the illustration inside

the battery compartment.)

Remove the batteries if the remote control transmitter will

not be used for an extended period of time.

If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately.  Avoid

touching the leaked material or letting it come in contact with
clothing, etc.  Clean the battery compartment thoroughly
before installing new batteries.

Notes

There should be no large obstacles between the remote

control transmitter and the main unit.

If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong

lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp,
etc.), it might cause the remote control transmitter not to
work correctly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid
direct lighting.
