Notes:
• Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds
of batteries.
• To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote
controller is not to be used for a long time.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from
corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly,
replace both batteries at the same time.
• The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but this
will vary depending on usage.
Notes:
• Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or
inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation
of the remote controller.
• Using another remote controller of the same type in the same
room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays
may cause operational interference.
• Do not put objects on the remote controller. Its buttons may be
pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.
• Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass.
Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote
controller operation.
• If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the
remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.
