Using the remote control
Installing remote control batteries
To install remote control batteries:
1 Press down on the battery compartment cover lock, then remove
the remote control cover.
2 Insert two AAA batteries into the battery compartment. Make
sure that the + and – symbols on the batteries match the +
and – symbols in the battery compartment.
3 Replace the cover. Make sure that the lock snaps into place.
Battery precautions:
• Dispose of batteries as hazardous waste.
• Make sure that the + and – symbols on the batteries align with the
+ and – symbols in the battery compartment.
• Do not mix batteries of different types.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can
shorten the life of new batteries and can cause old batteries to leak.
• Remove batteries as soon as they become inoperable. Chemicals that
can leak from the batteries can cause a rash. If the batteries leak,
clean the battery compartment with a cloth.
• If the remote control is not used for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries.
• Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or
other heat sources.
Aiming the remote control
To aim the remote control:
• Point the remote control towards the remote sensor on the front
of your TV.
Notes:
• Do not expose the remote control to shock or liquids.
• Do not use the remote control in an area with high humidity.
• Do not place the remote control in direct sunlight.
• Do not place objects, such as furniture, between the remote control
and the remote sensor.
• The remote control may not work if direct sunlight or bright light
shines on the remote sensor. Either move your TV or change the angle
at which you use the remote control.
