Playback Preparations
Preparation
Using Of Remote Control
Refer to the drawing and remove the
empty battery receptacle.
Point the remote control towards the
main unit when operating. The r/c works

an angle of up to 60°to the front of the
unit. No obstacles may stand in the way
between r/c and infrared sensor.
Insert the battery into the receptacle.
Make sure the polarity matches the
marks inside the component.
The batteries normally last for about six
months, although this depends on how
often, and for what operations the
remote control is used.
Insert the receptacle into the remote
control.
If the remote control unit fails to work
even when it is operated near the player,
replace the batteries.
If the r/c is not used for a long period of
time, remove the batteries from the
remote to prevent damage by leakage.
