Operation of remote control
Installing the batteries
This unit comes complete with batteries for the remote control. When installing
the batteries be sure to take note of the polarity markings on the inside of the
battery compartment and match them up with those on the batteries. If the
remote control only operates when you get closer to the device, it means that
the batteries have been used up. Please replace the two batteries simultane-
ously with two new batteries (size AAA, R03, 1.5V).
1Slide off the battery cover.
2Install the batteries in the correct orientation as marked on the battery com-
partment. Then close the battery compartment again.
Using the remote control
You can use the enclosed wireless remote control to control the DVB-T set-top
box. When using the remote control, please aim at the device’s remote control
sensor, located on the front of the device. A 30 degree angle is recommended
for best operation.
Note:
• Objects between the remote control and the sensor window may prevent
proper operation.
• Similar remote controls could interfere with the function of the set-top box.
• Make sure not to store the remote control upside down or with any objects
pressing on the buttons - this could drain the batteries.
Cautions regarding use of remote control
• Please do not expose the remote control to shock and liquids and do not place
it in areas with high humidity. Do not install or place the remote control under
direct sunlight, as the heat may cause deformation of the unit.
• When the remote sensor window is exposed to direct sunlight, it may not work
properly. If so, please operate the remote control closer to the remote sensor
window or change the angle of the lighting or device.
Important notes about the batteries
• If the unit is not used for a longer period of time, we recommend you to
remove the batteries.
• When changing batteries, please do not use old and new batteries or batter-
ies of different brands simultaneously.
• Please do not use batteries other than specified. Improper use of batteries
can result in a leakage of chemicals and/or explosion.
• In case of any leakage of batteries, dispose of the batteries right away and
avoid touching the chemical discharge. Make sure to clean the remote con-
trol’s battery compartment before installing new batteries.
