Radio remote control
TDL048A
Used to operate:
Central locking system
Anti-theft alarm system
The radio remote control has an
approximate range of up to 20
metres. This range can be affected
by outside influences.
The hazard warning flashers confirm
operation.
Handle with care, protect from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the radio remote
control, it may be due to the
following:
Range exceeded,
Battery voltage too low,
Frequent, repeated operation of
the remote control while not in
range, which will require
resynchronisation,
Overload of the central locking
system by operating at frequent
intervals, the power supply is
interrupted for a short time,
Interference from higher-power
radio waves from other sources.
