DO NOT SYNC more than 1 unit at once. A
hazardous situation may occur.

Note: If the batteries are running low on power, a low
battery indicator will appear on the remote. Low batteries
will affect transmission distance and the screen contrast.
The manufacturer recommends replacing batteries
immediately.

Note: The maximum transmission distance for this remote
is 30 ft. Do not use remote more than 30 ft from appliance.
Remote must be used in same room as appliance.

Note: Galileo™ can be used in either Fahrenheit or
Celsius. To change the reading on the remote, flip the
remote over and push the button located on the right hand
side under the stand with a ball point pen tip. This switch
will change the reading from F to C and vice versa.

Note: Every minute while in Auto mode, the Galileo™
communicates with the base unit. If the Galileo™ goes
out of range and/or has low batteries, the communication
will stop, and after 8 minutes of non-communication the
unit will shut off.
