(7 m) from the unit and within a 30 angle on each side of
the sensor.
If you are
having difficulty with operation
of the
remote control unit
• The remote control unit may not operate if there are objects
placed between it and the display
• Operational distance will gradually become shorter as the
batteries begin to wear out, replace weak batteries with new
ones as soon as possible.
• This unit discharges infrared rays from the screen. Placing a
video deck or other component that is operated by an infrared
remote control unit near this unit may hamper that
component's reception of the remote control's signal, or
prevent it from receiving the signal entirely. Should this occur,
move the component to a position further away from this unit.
• Depending on the instaflation surroundings, this unit's remote
control unit may be influenced by the infrared rays discharged
from the plasma display, hampering reception of its rays or
limiting its operational distance. The strength of infrared rays
discharged from the screen will differ according to the picture
displayed.
