Troubleshooting

Try this

1Operate the remote control by pointing it at the receiver.

➔ Reception within 45 degrees to the left and right based on the receiver is available.

Display the battery status location on the top of the remote control panel (45 degrees to the left and right within 5 m, forward within 7 m)

2Is the remote control display turned off?

➔ If the remote control display remains off even after you press the Power button, replace the batteries.

If the display does not turn on or the screen turns on and off after replacing the batteries, the remote control is malfunctioning, so replace it.

3If the remote control display is turned on normally, check the transmitter on the remote control using your cell phone.

➔ You can check if the signal on the remote control is normal using the camera function of your cell phone. (Some models including iPhones are not supported)

If the remote control has no problem, the receiver should be checked.

4Recognition is not performed well if there is a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp nearby.

➔ Check after turning off the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp.
At this time, if the remote control works well, there is no problem with the product.

Note
Separating and storing batteries separately when you do not use the remote control for a long period of time can prevent the batteries from discharging and causing a remote control failure.
* If the remote control is not used for a long period of time with the batteries inserted, battery fluid may leak and cause a remote control failure.
