NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER
Battery installation Remote control transmitter operation range

Remote control sensor

Within approximately 6 m (19.7 feet)

Battery replacement

If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used closer to the main unit than usual, 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.
NOTES ABOUT HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
