Preparing the remote control unit
Inserting batteries
1
Open the battery cover.
2
Load the supplied two AA batteries. Insert the negative
polarity (–) ends first.
• The battery polarities must correspond with the (+) and
(–) indicators in the battery compartment.
3
Close the battery cover.
Cautions regarding batteries
• The remote control unit cannot operate the system if the
batteries in the unit are weak. When this happens, replace
the batteries with new ones.
• Use alkaline batteries rather than manganese batteries.
• Do not mix battery brands. Different brands have different
characteristics.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new
batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause
chemical leakage in old batteries.
• Do not leave dead batteries in the remote control. Dead
batteries leak chemicals. If you find any chemical leakage,
wipe thoroughly with a clean cloth.
• The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter
life expectancy due to storage conditions.
• If you will not use the remote control unit for an extended
period of time, remove the batteries.
Allowed operation range of the remote control
unit
To use the remote control, point it at the sensor located at the
bottom right corner of the Plasma Display. The distance from
the remote control sensor must be within 7 m (23 feet) and the
angle relative to the sensor must be within 30 degrees left or
right.
NOTE
• Although the SR logo also appears in the lower right corner
on the PRO-940HD, the sensor is in the same location for all
three panels.
Cautions regarding the remote control unit
• Do not expose the remote control to shock, liquid, or high
humidity.
• Do not place the remote control unit under direct sunlight,
the unit may deform.
• The remote control may not work properly if the panel’s
remote sensor window is under direct sunlight or strong
room lighting. If the remote control fails to function in a
bright environment, try changing the signal angle or move
closer to the panel.
• Objects placed between the remote control and the panel
sensor may block the signal.
• As the batteries become weak, the remote control may need
to be used closer to the panel. Replace the batteries with
new ones if necessary.
• The Plasma Display emits very weak infrared rays from its
screen. Other nearby equipment using an infrared remote
control such as a VCR may receive scrambled or incomplete
commands from its remote control. In this situation, move
the equipment away from the Plasma Display.
• Depending on the environment, infrared rays from the
Plasma Display may corrupt signals sent by the remote
control. These IR waves could also require that the remote
control be used closer to the panel. The strength of infrared
rays emitted from the screen differs, depending on the
image being displayed.
Battery disposal
When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental regulations or environmental public
institution’s rules that apply in your country/area.
