OPERATION

TRANSMITTER
The transmitter operates on a 12V battery made specifi-
cally for remote controls and electronic lighters. Before us-
ing the transmitter, remove the insulation tab protecting one
end of the battery in the battery compartment.
It is recommended that
ALKALINE batteries al-
ways be used for longer
Battery Life and maximum
operational performance.
IMPORTANT: New or fully
charged batteries are es-
sential for proper opera-
tion of the transmitter.
The RC-ELEC functions
on one of 255 security
codes programmed at the
factory. The transmitter
sends either an ON or
OFF signal to the remote
receiver when either but-
ton is pressed. The sig-
nal light on the transmit-
ter illuminates to indicate
the signal is being sent to
the receiver.
