Inserting batteries into the remote

You can control this unit using the supplied remote. Insert two R6 (size AA) batteries by matching the + and – on the batteries. When using the remote, point it at the remote

sensor on this unit.

Tip

With normal use, the batteries should last for about six months. When the remote no longer operates the tuner, replace both batteries with new ones.

Notes

Do not leave the remote in an extremely hot or humid place.

Do not drop foreign objects into the remote casing, particularly when replacing the batteries.

Do not expose the remote sensor to direct sunlight or lighting apparatus. Doing so may cause a malfunction.

If you will not use the remote for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
