Getting Started
Installing the
Batteries

compartment lid and insert four
size AA(R6) batteries (not
supplied). Be sure to match up the
+ and – indications on the
batteries with the + and –
indications on the battery
compartment.
When to replace the
batteries
Batteries for remote control
operation (Four size AA (R6)
batteries)
Under normal conditions, the
batteries will last up to five
months. If the Commander does
not operate properly, the batteries
might be drained. When this
happens, replace the batteries with
new ones.
Note
Do not take more than one hour to
replace the batteries; otherwise, your
setting of the code numbers (page 8)
and “learned” remote control signals
(page 15) will be erased.
Notes on batteries
• Do not mix old batteries with new
ones or mix different types of
batteries together.
• If the electrolyte inside the battery
should leak, wipe the contaminated
area of the battery compartment with
a cloth and replace the old batteries
with new ones. To prevent the
electrolyte from leaking, remove the
batteries when you plan not to use
the Commander for a long period of
time.
Insert the batteries negative-and-
first through the guide clamp
within each compartment as
shown above.
