RG10A2/BGEF Remote Controller

INSTRUCTIONS OF USING WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL

• The remote control uses two alkaline batteries (1.5 Volts).
• Do not use old batteries or batteries of different types, as this may cause the controller malfunction.
• If you do not use the remote control for more than two months, please remove the batteries. bOtherwise battery leakage may damage the remote control.
• The average battery life during normal use is approximately half a year.
• Replace the batteries when there is no receiving beep coming from the indoor unit or transmission indicator on the remote control fails to light.
• The maximum operating distance for the remote control is approximately 8 meters.
• The transmitter of remote control must be directed toward the receiver of indoor unit when pressing the buttons of the desired functions. An acoustical acknowledgement sound (beep) will indicate that signal has been received.
• Avoid obstacles obstructions such as curtains, doors or other materials between the remote control and the receiver of indoor unit to avoid blocking the signals from the remote control to the indoor unit.
• Avoid direct sunlight on the receiver of indoor unit, which may interfere with good signal reception and the air conditioner may not work properly. Draw the curtains to avoid direct sunlight.
• Keep the remote control away from water. Do not let the remote control fall down.
• Never use objects with sharp point to press the button on the remote control.
• Prevent any liquid from falling into the remote control.
• If other electric applications react to the remote control, move these applications.
• Do not dispose of batteries as unsored municipal waste. Refer to local laws for proper disposal of batteries.
