Cleaning

Wipe the remote control with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners, abrasive pads, or chemical solvents, as these can damage the remote's surface or internal components.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Wellclima WEC-MI1 remote control, consider the following:

    • Verify that you are within the operating range (up to 8 meters).
    • Repeat the quick configuration steps.
  • Limited operating range:
    • Ensure fresh batteries are used.
    • Minimize interference from other electronic devices.
