Installing/Removing batteries

Be sure to install the provided CR2016 type batteries before using the

remote controller. The procedures for installing and removing the batteries

vary depending on the type of the remote controller. Check the type and

then install or remove the batteries as instructed.

Even if within the effective scope as described above, the remote controller

may malfunction or not work correctly in the following cases.

When an obstacle stands between the infrared receiver window of your

computer and the remote controller.

When direct sunlight or strong fluorescent light strikes the infrared

receiver window.

When the infrared receiver window or the infrared emission part of the

remote controller is dirty.

When other computers which use an infrared remote controller are

used near to your computer.

When a low battery condition is present.

Store the battery for the remote controller beyond the reach of children.

If a child swallows a battery, this might result in choking. If it happens,

contact a doctor immediately.

Observe the following precautions when using the battery of the remote

controller.

Do not use batteries other than those specified.

Ensure that you insert the batteries with their polarities correctly

aligned (+ or -).

Do not recharge, heat, disassemble or short the battery, or put it into a

fire or flame.

Do not use a battery whose "recommended expiration date" has been

reached, or which is completely discharged.

Do not use different types of batteries or old and new batteries at the

same time.

Do not carry the battery together with metal necklaces, hairpins or

other metal accessories.

When storing or disposing of used batteries, make sure to put some

insulation tape on their terminals (+ and -) to avoid short-circuits.

If these precautions are not followed, heating, fluid leakage or explosion

may occur. This may cause burns or personal injury. If battery fluid gets on

your skin or clothes, wash immediately with clean water. If battery fluid

gets in your eyes, rinse your eyes with clean water immediately and see a

doctor. Do not touch the battery fluid on instruments or devices with bare

hands. Wipe off with a cloth or paper towel.
