6.1 Battery Replacement

6.2 Cleaning

To clean the remote control, use a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or alcohol, as these can damage the remote's surface or internal components.

7. Troubleshooting

• Remote not responding:
  • Ensure the batteries are correctly installed with the correct polarity.
  • Replace old batteries with new ones.
  • Check for any obstructions between the remote control and the SANSUI unit's infrared sensor.
  • Confirm that the remote is pointed directly at the unit.
• Remote controls some functions but not others:
  • Verify that your SANSUI unit model is listed in the compatibility section (Section 3).
  • Ensure the sliding cover is in the correct position for the desired function (e.g., slid down for VCR controls).
• Remote does not control auxiliary devices (e.g., DVD player, cable box):
  • This Redi-Remote is designed to control only the specific SANSUI TV/VCR unit it replaces and cannot be programmed for other devices.
