Before going into details, let’s first have a look at the RC9800i itself.

■how to turn the RC9800i on and off;

■how to operate the touch screen;

■how to use the hard keys;

■how to charge the device by means of a cradle;

Note The first time you activate your RC9800i, an initial setup wizard appears. This wizard will assist you in setting up your RC9800i. You must go through this initial setup before you actually can use the RC9800i to control other devices.

Before you proceed, we advise you to fully charge your RC9800i. See page 8 for more information on how to charge the device.

Everyday Use

During normal everyday use, the RC9800i will automatically go into standby mode when it isn’t being used. Since you can leave the RC9800i on all the time, you don’t need to switch the RC9800i off with the On/Off Switch. Leaving your device on also gives you the advantage of not having to wait for the device to start up.

To wake up the RC9800i from standby mode, simply tap the touch screen.
