Insert The Batteries - Microsoft Remote Control and Receiver User Manual

Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of the Remote Control and Receiver
for Media Center PC with Windows
receiver—also known as a remote sensor—let you access and manage your
Media Center PC and other peripheral devices.
Important If you purchased the Remote Control for Media Center PC with
Windows, which doesn't include a receiver, skip the sections in this manual
that describe working with the receiver.

Insert the Batteries

The remote control uses two AA (LR6) batteries, which are included in the
package. Whenever you insert batteries, always make sure both of them are
new.
To insert the batteries
1 Remove the battery compartment cover by
pressing on its release and lifting up.
2 Insert the batteries, making sure to properly orient
the positive (+) and negative (-) ends as specified
by the battery compartment labels.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Position the Receiver

For optimum performance, make sure that the distance between the remote
and the receiver doesn't exceed 20 feet. Keep a direct, unobstructed line of
sight between the receiver and the remote control, and don't let any natural
or artificial light shine directly on the receiver's IR sensor. If you already have
an IR receiver, and did not purchase the Microsoft receiver, see "Using the
Remote Control" later in this manual.
