Caring for the remote
• Do not drop the remote.
• Do not get the remote wet.
• Do not use or store the remote in the
following locations:
In direct sunlight
Near hot objects
Areas with high humidity
• Do not mix new and used batteries.
Only add all new batteries.
• Do not mix battery brands. Different
battery brands may have different
voltages even if the same size.
• When not planning to use the remote
for a long period of time (over one
month), remove the batteries to prevent
battery fluid leaks inside the remote. If a
battery leak occurs inside the remote,
discard the old batteries, wipe out the
liquid from the case, and add new
batteries.
• The Pioneer batteries supplied with the
remote do not contain heavy metals,
such as mercury, nickel, or cadmium. In
many countries, however, the disposal
of batteries with household waste is not
allowed. Be sure to comply with local
regulations when disposing of batteries.
• The remote’s TV preset code setting
will only last for about one minute
without batteries, so to prevent the
inconvenience of losing the stored
settings, have ready a fresh set of
new batteries and add them immedi-
ately after removing the old batter-
ies. However, if the remote’s buttons
are pressed while the batteries are
removed, the brand code setting will
be deleted. Please be careful not to
press the buttons while replacing the
batteries.
Remote operation range
30 °
30 ° 7 m
• If an object is blocking the path between
the remote and the DTR signal sensor
the unit might not respond to the
remote commands. If this happens,
remove the obstacle or change your
position.
• As the batteries weaken, the range of
the remote becomes shorter. If the
operation range is too short for your
preference, replace the batteries.
