HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

1. Remote control unit

The distance between the signal transmitter of the remote con-
trol unit (RC8100PM) and the IR SENSOR of the integrated
amplifier (PM8200) should be less than about 5 meters. To en-
sure remote control, the remote control unit should be pointed
accurately toward the IR SENSOR and there should be no ob-
stacle between the remote control unit and the IR SENSOR.
