3. Maintenance
3.1 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.
3.2 Battery Replacement
Replace batteries when the remote's response becomes sluggish or it stops functioning. Always replace both batteries at the same time with new alkaline batteries of the same type (AAA). Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
3.3 Storage
When not in use for extended periods, it is recommended to remove the batteries from the remote control to prevent leakage, which can cause damage. Store the remote in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
