CR-389 Remote Control

The CR-389 remote control gives access to all functions
available on the front panel of the A90. It also has controls to
operate Arcam CD players, AM/FM tuners and DAB tuners.
The remote control transmits Philips RC-5 type codes.
These buttons are used to control tuner functions.

you are switching the remote control. The lights only
illuminate for five seconds to conserve battery power.

remote control is not working!
