Replacing the Battery
Aiming the Remote Controller
Use only a battery of the same type (CR 2025).
When using the remote controller, point it
toward the RI Dock’s remote control sensor, as
shown below.
1. To open the battery compartment, press
the small hollow and slide open the cover.
Remote control sensor
RI Dock
2. While pressing the tab as shown, slide out
the old battery.
Slide the new battery into the battery com-
partment with the positive side facing up.
Notes:
•
If the RI Dock is placed on top of another
component, the remote controller’s sig-
nal may be obstructed and the remote
controller may not work reliably.
3. Slide the cover shut.
•
The remote controller may not work reli-
ably if the RI Dock is subjected to bright
light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-
type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind
when installing.
•
If another remote controller of the same
type is used in the same room, or the RI
Dock is installed close to equipment that
uses infrared rays, the remote controller
may not work reliably.
Notes:
•
If the remote controller doesn’t work reli-
ably, try replacing the battery.
•
•
•
Don’t put anything on top of the remote
controller, such as a book or magazine,
because a button may be pressed contin-
uously, thereby draining the batteries.
The remote controller may not work reli-
ably if the RI Dock is installed in a rack
behind colored glass doors. Keep this in
mind when installing.
•
If you intend not to use the remote con-
troller for a long time, remove the battery
to prevent damage from leakage or cor-
rosion.
An expired battery should be removed as
soon as possible to prevent damage from
leakage or corrosion.
•
The remote controller will not work if
there’s an obstacle between it and the RI
Dock’s remote control sensor.
Caution: Replacing the battery incorrectly
may cause an explosion. Use only a battery
of the same type or an equivalent.
