6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your DEWENWILS Outdoor Wireless Remote Control Outlet, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the receiver unit and remote with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Weather Protection: While the unit is weatherproof, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions such as heavy snow, ice, or direct, continuous water spray. Ensure the unit is installed vertically as recommended.
- Remote Battery Replacement: The remote transmitter uses a CR2032 3V battery. If the remote's range decreases or it stops responding, replace the battery. To replace, open the battery compartment on the back of the remote, remove the old battery, and insert a new CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing upwards.
- Storage: If storing the unit for an extended period, disconnect it from power and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
