Inserting batteries into the remote

Insert batteries with the + and – properly oriented in the

battery compartment. When using the remote, point it at

the remote sensor on the receiver.

For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied

with your remote.

zWhen to replace batteries

Under normal conditions, the batteries should last for about

3 months (alkaline batteries) or 2 months (manganese batteries).

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.

• 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.

• The remote RM-LJ304 is designed for use with alkaline

batteries only. Do not use a combination of different battery

types.

Before you get started

• Turn off the power to all components before making

any connections.

• Do not connect the AC power cord 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.
