5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the remote control. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as they may damage the surface or internal components.
- Battery Replacement: If the remote's performance degrades (e.g., reduced range, unresponsive buttons), replace all 4 AAA batteries with new ones. Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
- Storage: Store the remote in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
- Avoid Drops: Protect the remote from physical impact, as drops can damage internal circuitry.
