• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the remote's response becomes sluggish or stops working. Always replace both batteries at the same time with new ones of the same type.
• Storage: Store the remote in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If the remote will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
• Avoid Drops: Protect the remote from physical impact, as drops can damage internal components.
