Inserting the batteries into the remote control
1. Remove the rear lid of the remote control.
2. Check the polarity (+), (-) of the batteries, and set them
correctly, inserting their (-) side first.
•
If the battery is inserted from the (+) side first, inserting
the (-) side is difficult because the coil spring end hits
on the battery side. If the battery is forced to insert in
this way, the outer label of the battery may get ripped
and it may cause a short-circuit and heating.
3. Attach the rear lid.
Important:
• Use two size-AA batteries (R6).
• Replace the 2 batteries with new ones when the remote
control is slow to operate.
Removing the batteries from the remote control
Remove the back lid of the remote control and take out the
batteries.
Caution:
• Use of a battery of wrong type may cause explosion.
• Only Carbon-Zinc or Alkaline-Manganese Dioxide type batteries should be used.
• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.
• Batteries may explode if misused. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of them in fire.
• Be sure to handle the batteries according to the instructions.
• Load the batteries with its positive (+) and negative (-) sides correctly oriented as indicated on the remote control.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children and pets.
• Remove the batteries, if the remote control is not used for a long time.
