Handling the Battery
• Improper or incorrect use of batteries may cause corrosion or battery leakage, which
could cause fire, personal injury or damage to property.
• Install the battery correctly by following the polarity (+ and –) indications in the
battery compartment.
• When the battery is exhausted, the remote control will not function.
• Only use the battery type indicated in this manual.
• Do not dispose of the used battery as domestic waste. Dispose of it in accordance
with the local regulations.
• Small button cell batteries such as the one used in the remote control are easily
swallowed by young children and this is dangerous. Keep loose button cells away
from young children and make sure that the battery holder tray is secure in the
remote control. Seek medical advice if you believe a cell has been swallowed.
Handling the Remote Control

• Do not place the remote control on a wet object.
• Do not place the remote control under direct sunlight or near sources of excessive
heat.
• Remove the battery from the remote control when not in use for a long period of
time, as it could cause corrosion or battery leakage and may result in physical injury
and/or property damage including fire.
