2 Insert the two supplied batteries (AA/R6) in
accordance with the polarity diagram inside the
battery compartment.
3 Close the battery compartment.
Notes
• The supplied batteries should last for about six months,
although this will vary with usage.
• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing
both batteries.
• Don’t mix new and old batteries, or different types of batteries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time,
remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.
• Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent
possible leakage and corrosion.
Using the Remote Controller
To use the remote controller, point it at the HT-R8230’s remote
control sensor, as shown below. The HT-R8230’s STANDBY
indicator flashes while a signal is being received from the remote
controller.
Notes
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the HT-R8230
is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-
type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing the
HT-R8230.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same
room, or the HT-R8230 is installed close to equipment that uses
infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller,
because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby
draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the HT-R8230
is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in
mind when installing the HT-R8230.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle
between it and the HT-R8230’s remote control sensor.
