Using the Remote Control

NOTE: To activate the remote control functions, pull out
the plastic pull tab protruding from the remote control
housing.

This remote control is equipped with a proximity lighting
feature. When moving a hand within close proximity to
the remote control, the LED lights turn on for 3 seconds.
Upon successful activation of a remote control button,
the LED lights will blink rapidly.

Proximity Disable Feature

The remote control will turn off the proximity lighting
feature if the proximity lighting is turned on 10
consecutive times without activation of a button. To re-
enable the proximity lighting, simply press a button. This
function conserves battery life.

Troubleshooting

Reduced proximity

touching top of
remote control)

Check if proximity lighting is
disabled by pressing a button.

Replace 3V2450 battery with
same type 3V2450 coin cell.

The Proximity Sensor may be
oversensitized. Sit remote

seconds on a non-metallic
surface. This allows the sensor
to recalibrate itself.

with same type 3V2016 coin
cells.

No rapid LED
blinking after
pressing a button

Replace two 3V2016 batteries
