Replacing I/O Terminal Cover
1. Run cables through bottom of I/O terminal cavity across foam gasket. All cables must exit toward
bottom of display to retain seal when I/O terminal cover is installed. Do not run cabling through
the top or sides of I/O terminal cavity. Leave approximately 1/2" (13mm) between cables to
retain seal when I/O Terminal Cover is installed.
2. Replace I/O terminal cover onto I/O terminal guides, keeping cables between the bottom
gaskets.
3. Replace and-tighten (8) screws until I/O terminal cover gasket is fully compressed to back of
display.
CAUTION
Failure to follow these instructions can result in the product being damaged, destroyed, and
voiding the warranty.
• Ensure cord bend radius does not exceed limits set by
the manufacturer.
• Ensure cords are seated properly in the cable channels
to avoid potential damage to cords when I/O terminal
cover is installed.
• Do not run cables through the top or sides of I/O terminal
cavity. All cables must exit toward bottom of display to
retain seal when I/O terminal cover is installed.

Remote Control Battery Installation and Replacement
1. To remove the battery module of the remote
control, remove the two screws on the end
of the battery module. Slide the battery
module out of the remote control.
2. Insert two new “AAA” size batteries into
the battery module. Ensure the positive
and negative marks on the batteries are
correctly oriented with the markings on
the inside of the remote control's battery
compartment.
3. Slide the battery module back into the
remote control, and reinsert the two screws
in the end of the battery module to maintain
a waterproof seal (do not over tighten).
The remote control is powered by two 1.5V AAA batteries installed at the factory.
If the Red LED light on the remote fails to illuminate when a button is pressed, the batteries may need
to be replaced. Follow the directions below to replace the batteries.
CAUTION
Incorrect usage of batteries can result in leaks
or bursting. Peerless-AV recommends the
following battery use:
• Do not mix battery brands.
• Do not combine new and old batteries. This
can shorten the battery life or cause battery
acid leaks.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to
prevent battery acid from leaking into the
battery compartment.
• Do not touch exposed battery acid as it
may injure skin.
• Remove the batteries if you do not intend
to use the remote control for a long period
of time.
• Do not expose the batteries to excessive

• Fully tighten screws to maintain the ingress
protection rating of the remote.
