The infrared remote control option must be enabled in its setup menu
to operate. When enabled, the remote circuitry adds a slight drain to
the batteries even while the Scale is off. The approximate power-off
battery life with Remote enabled is 40,000 hours vs. a remote disabled

To enable/disable the Infrared Remote
