- Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the remote.
- For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaning pads, as these can damage the remote's finish or internal components.
Battery Replacement
Replace batteries when the remote's response becomes sluggish or stops working. Always replace both AA batteries at the same time with new ones. Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries, as this can lead to leakage or damage.
Storage
If the remote control will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent potential leakage and damage to the device.
