Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your remote control, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the remote control with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water and a mild detergent, then wipe dry immediately. Do not use abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or benzene.
• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the remote's response becomes sluggish or the display dims. Always replace both batteries at the same time with new alkaline batteries.
• Storage: If the remote control will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and potential damage. Store in a cool, dry place.
• Avoid Drops: Protect the remote from physical impact, as drops can damage internal components.

Troubleshooting

Remote Control Not Responding

• Check Batteries: Ensure batteries are inserted correctly with the correct polarity (+/-). Replace old batteries with new AAA alkaline batteries.
• Line of Sight: Make sure there are no obstructions between the remote control and the air conditioner's receiver.
• Distance: Operate the remote within its effective range of 8-10 meters (26-33 feet).

"Doesn't Work?" - Custom Code Setting (as per back label)

2. Press and hold the power button "OFF/ON" for 3 seconds to start the current custom code setting.
3. Press the Temperature button TEMP + or TEMP - to change the code. The initial setting is "01".
4. Press the power button "OFF/ON" again to confirm the code when the air conditioner responds.
