Using the Remote Control
NOTE: To activate the remote control functions, pull out
the plastic pull tab protruding from the remote control
housing.
This remote control is equipped with a proximity lighting
feature. When moving a hand within close proximity to the
remote control, the LED lights turn on for 3 seconds. Upon
successful activation of a remote control button, the LED
lights will blink rapidly.
Proximity Disable Feature
The remote control will turn off the proximity lighting
feature if the proximity lighting is turned on 10 consecutive
times without activation of a button. To re-enable the
proximity lighting, simply press a button. This function
conserves battery life.

Check if proximity lighting is
disabled by pressing a button.
Replace 3V2450 battery with
same type 3V2450 coin cell.
The Proximity Sensor may be
oversensitized. Sit remote control
undisturbed for 60 seconds on a
non-metallic surface. This allows
the sensor to recalibrate itself.
Dim LED lights

cells.
No rapid LED
blinking after
pressing a button Replace two 3V2016 batteries
