Maintenance

Battery Replacement

If the remote control becomes unresponsive or its range decreases, it is likely time to replace the batteries. Follow the steps outlined in the "Inserting Batteries" section under Setup. Always replace both batteries at the same time with new ones of the same type (AA).

Cleaning

To clean the remote control, gently wipe its surface with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the remote's finish or internal components.

Do not immerse the remote control in water or expose it to excessive moisture.
