The remote commander supplied with this unit can control
the unit from a distance.
Battery life
About half a year of normal operation can be expected when
using the Sony SUM-3 (NS) batteries. When the batteries are
exhausted, the remote commander can no longer operate the
unit. If this happens, replace both batteries with new ones.
To avoid battery leakage
If the commander is not going to be used for a long time,
remove the batteries to avoid damage caused by battery
leakage and corrosion.
