CAring for Your remote
Control
The remote control is a valuable object and should
be treated with care. Here are some things you can
do to prolong the life of your remote control:
• Do not expose it to extreme temperatures or high
humidity.
• Clean the remote control with a soft cloth. Never
wash your remote control with water, cleaning so-
lutions or other liquids.
• Do not carry your remote control with you during
X-rays, scans or radiation treatments and never
place your remote control in a microwave oven.
These are some of the types of radiation that can
damage your remote control. However, radiation
from, for example, room surveillance equipment,
burglar alarms or mobile phones is weaker and
will not damage your remote control.
• Never try to open or repair the remote control
yourself. (To be performed by authorised person-
nel only).
wArnings
Batteries can be dangerous if swallowed or used
improperly. Swallowing or improper use can result
in severe injury, or even fatalities. In case of inges-
tion, contact a physician immediately.
• Keep your remote control and its parts, accesso-
ries and batteries out of reach of children and an-
yone else who might swallow such items or other-
wise cause injury to themselves. Do not change
batteries in front of them and do not let them see
where you keep your battery supply. Discard
used batteries carefully.
• Never put a battery or hearing aid in your mouth
for any reason as you may risk swallowing it.
• Do not use your remote control on aeroplanes or
in hospitals without permission.
• Do not use your remote control in mines or other
areas with explosive gases.
16 17
• Although your remote control has been designed
to comply with the most stringent international
electromagnetic compatibility standards, the
possibility cannot be excluded that it may cause
interference with other equipment, such as medi-
cal devices.
CAUTION
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an
incorrect type or recharged.
Dispose of used batteries according to the
instructions.
