8-4-3. Replacing Batteries
The remote controller uses two alkaline dry batteries
(LR03).
(1) Remove the cover of the battery compartment at
the back of the remote controller by sliding it out
in the direction of the arrow.
Remove the used batteries and insert new bat-
teries.
(2) Press a coin or the similar object against the unit
to reset, and perform resetting. Then, close the
rear lid.
(Once the cell has been replaced, the controller
may malfunction. Perform resetting (ACL) accord-
ingly.)
Notes:
• When replacing batteries, do not use used bat-
teries or batteries of a different type. Such use
may cause the remote controller to malfunction.
• If you do not use the remote controller over a long
period, remove the batteries. Otherwise, battery
leakage may damage the remote controller.
• The average battery life during normal use is ap-
proximately one year.
• Replace the batteries when there is no receiving
beep from the indoor unit or if the transmission
indication lamp on the remote control unit fails to
light.

CAUTIONS:
• The air conditioner will not operate if curtains
doors or other materials block the signal from
the remote controller to the indoor unit.
• Prevent any liquid from failing into the remote
controller.
Do not expose the remote controller to direct
sunlight or heat.
• If the infrared signal receiver at the indoor unit
is exposed to direct sunlight, the air conditioner
may not function properly. Use curtains to pre-
vent the sunlight from falling on the receiver.
• If the room using the air conditioner has fluo-
rescent lighting with electronic starters, signals
may not be properly received. If you are plan-
ning to use such florescent lamps, consult your
local dealer.
• If other electrical appliances react to the re-
mote control, either move these appliances or
consult your local dealer.
