When to replace batteries
Under normal conditions, the batteries should last for about 3
months.  When the remote no longer operates the receiver,
replace all batteries with new ones.
Notes
• Do not leave the remote in an extremely hot or humid place.
• Do not use a new battery with an old one.
• This remote is designed for use with alkaline batteries only. Do
not use a combination of different battery types.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct sunlight or lighting
apparatuses.  Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• If you don’t use the remote for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery
leakage and corrosion.
Before you get started
• Turn off the power to all components before making
any connections.
• Do not connect the AC power cords until all of the
connections are completed.
• Be sure to make connections firmly to avoid hum and
noise.
• When connecting an audio/video cord, be sure to
match the color-coded pins to the appropriate jacks on
the components:  yellow (video) to yellow;  white (left,
audio) to white;  and red (right, audio) to red.
