•With an AM radio:

Tune an AM radio to a band with no broadcasting. Press a button on remote control toward the radio. Sound will be fluttering when you press any key and the radio receives the signal. This means the remote control unit is working.

•With a digital camera (including built- in camera of cellular phone):
