2. Initial Use

Operating Instructions
To operate your device, point the remote control directly at the infrared (IR) receiver on your Pioneer AV receiver and press the desired function button. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the receiver.
Important Considerations:
- This is a dedicated replacement remote control and may not support all advanced functions of the original manufacturer's remote.
- The remote operates using infrared (IR) technology, requiring a direct line of sight.
- Compatible devices include DVD/Blu-ray Players, Home Theaters, Set Top Boxes, Stereo Systems, and Televisions when controlled through the compatible Pioneer AV receiver.
Maintenance
Battery Care:
- Remove batteries if the remote control will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.
- Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types (e.g., alkaline and rechargeable).
- Replace all batteries at the same time.
Cleaning:
To clean the remote control, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or wet cloths, as these can damage the surface or internal components.
Troubleshooting
- Remote Not Responding:
Check if the batteries are installed correctly and have sufficient charge. Ensure there is a clear line of sight between the remote's IR emitter and the device's IR receiver. - Some Functions Not Working:
As a replacement remote, it is designed to replicate primary functions. Certain advanced or specific features of the original remote may not be supported. This is not indicative of a defective product. - Short Transmission Distance:
Ensure batteries are fresh. Obstructions or strong light sources (like direct sunlight) can interfere with the IR signal.
