• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the main unit as shown in the diagram.
• The remote control unit can be used from a straight distance of approximately 23 feet from the
main unit, but this distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in the way or if the remote control
unit is not pointed directly at the remote sensor.
• The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30 degrees with respect
to the remote sensor.
NOTE:
• It may be difficult to operate the remote control
unit if the remote sensor is exposed to direct
sunlight or strong artificial light.
• Do not press buttons on the main unit and
remote control unit simultaneously. Doing so
may result in malfunction.
• Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-
type noise nearby may result in malfunction,
so keep the set as far away from such devices
as possible.

Inserting the batteries
q Remove the remote control unit’s rear
cover.
w Set two R6P/AA batteries in the battery
compartment in the indicated direction.
e Put the rear cover back on.
Notes on batteries:
• Replace the batteries with new ones if the set
does not operate even when the remote
control unit is operated nearby the unit. (The
included batteries are only for verifying
operation.)
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so
in the proper direction, following the “<” and
“>” marks in the battery compartment.
• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:
• Do not use a new battery together with an
old one.
• Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or
dispose of batteries in flames.
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe
the fluid off the inside of the battery
compartment and insert new batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, have the new
batteries ready and insert them as quickly as
possible.
