Approx. 16.4 ft. (5 m) 60° Remote controller Caution: • Do not allow direct sunlight, an inverter fluorescent light or other strong source of light to shine onto the unit's infrared receptor window. Otherwise, the operation of the remote controller may be disabled. • Bear in mind that operating the remote controller may cause other devices operated by infrared rays to be operated by mistake. • The remote controller cannot be operated if the space between the controller and the unit's infrared receptor window is obstructed. • Do not place any objects on top of the remote controller. Doing so may cause one or more buttons to be held down which will cause the batteries to run down. LOADING BATTERIES Before using the remote controller for the first time, load the batteries in the remote controller. The batteries provided are used to verify the operations of the remote controller only. 1. Remove the back cover. 2. Insert the new alkaline batteries (AAA type) with correct ª and · polarity. 3. Close the battery cover until it clicks shut. Rechargeable batteries can also be used. In this case, be sure to use only AAA type NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable batteries. When using rechargeable batteries, be sure to follow manufacturer guidelines for safety and proper usage. • When the batteries are almost worn out, "LOW" is displayed on the LCD battery indicator. • The settings remain saved in the remote controller even if the power completely runs out.

CAUTIONS ON BATTERIES • Use "AAA" type batteries in this remote controller. • We recommend that you use alkali batteries. • If the remote controller does not operate from close to the unit, replace the batteries with new ones, even if less then a year has passed. • The included battery is only for verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible. • When inserting the batteries, be careful to do so in the proper direction, following the + and - marks in the remote controller's battery compartment. • To prevent damage or battery fluid leakage: - Do not use a new battery with an old one. - Do not use two different types of batteries. - Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in flames. • Remove the batteries when not planning to use the remote controller for a long period of time. • If the batteries should leak, carefully wipe off the fluid from the inside of the battery compartment, then insert new batteries. • When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public instruction's rules that apply in your country or area. 3. Close the battery cover until it clicks shut. Notes: • Under normal usage, alkaline batteries last approximately 3 months. The battery life varies depending on the frequency of use and the remote controller settings. Frequent use will wear down the batteries quicker. Note: • The life of the batteries used with the remote controller is about 4 months with normal use. 4
