OLMO Air Conditioner Remote Controller

Handling the Remote Controller

Location of the Remote Controller

Use the remote controller within a distance of 8 meters from the appliance, pointing it towards the receiver. Reception is confirmed by a beep.

[Diagram Description: A remote control is shown pointing towards an air conditioner unit, with an 8-meter range indicated.]

Cautions

• The air conditioner will not operate if curtains, doors, or other materials block the signals from the remote controller to the indoor unit.
• Prevent any liquid from falling into the remote controller. Do not expose the remote controller to direct sunlight or heat.
• If the infrared signal receiver on the indoor unit is exposed to direct sunlight, the air conditioner may not function properly. Use curtains to prevent sunlight from falling on the receiver.
• If other electrical appliances react to the remote controller, either move these appliances or consult your local dealer.

Replacing Batteries

The remote controller is powered by two dry batteries (R03/LR03x2) housed in the rear part and protected by a cover.

1. Remove the cover by pressing and sliding off.
2. Remove the old batteries and insert the new batteries, placing the (+) and (-) ends correctly.
3. Reattach the cover by sliding it back into position.

NOTE: When the batteries are removed, the remote controller erases all programming. After inserting new batteries, the remote controller must be reprogrammed.

Cautions

• Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types.
• Do not leave the batteries in the remote controller if they are not going to be used for 2 or 3 months.
• Do not dispose of batteries as unsorted municipal waste. Collection of such waste separately for special treatment is necessary.
