If after reactivating the remote control, the adjacent display is shown constantly, then there is a more serious error at hand as all data has disap-
peared. In this case, please contact our service centre.
Attention! Do not under any circumstances operate a model in the case shown. Otherwise unforeseeable reactions of the receiver may result in
serious damages to property and/or injury to persons.
10. Using the Remote Control for the First Time
In the further course of these instructions, the numbers in the text will always refer to the adjacent
figure and/or to the figures within the section. Cross references to other figures are specified
with the corresponding figure number.
a) Inserting the Batteries/Storage Batteries
To supply the remote control with power, you need 8 alkaline batteries (e. g. Conrad order No. 652507, 4 pack, please order two packs) or mignon-size storage batteries
(AA). For ecological as well as for economical reasons, it is recommended in any case that you use storage batteries as they can be recharged in the remote control via a
built-in charging jack (see Figure 1, Item 9).
In order to insert the batteries or the storage batteries, please proceed as follows:
The battery compartment cover (2) is located on the back of the remote control. Please push on the corrugated triangle and push the cover down to remove it.
Place 8 batteries or storage batteries in the battery compartment. In any case, please check the correct polarity of the cells. A corresponding note (1) is provided on the
bottom of the battery compartment.
Then push the cover of the battery compartment back on and allow the latch to lock into place.
b) Charging Storage Batteries in the Remote Control
During operation with storage batteries, you can connect a charging cord to the charging jack (see Figure 1, Item 9) when the remote control is deactivated and charge the
storage batteries in the remote control. In so doing, be absolutely sure to check for the correct polarity of the connector plug. The inner contact of the charging jack must be
connected with the positive terminal (+) and the outer contact with the minus terminal (-) of the charger. The charging current should amount to approx. 1/10 of the capacitance
value of the storage batteries that have been inserted. In order to avoid damages to the internal conductor paths and terminals, please do not use any quick-chargers.
Only connect the charger if you have inserted storage batteries (1.2 V/cell) in the remote control. Never attempt to charge batteries (1.5 V/cell)
with the charger. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
When the storage batteries have been charged and/or new batteries have been inserted, turn on the remote control using the On/Off switch for test purposes (see Figure 1,
Item 10). On the display, the current voltage will be shown.
In order to prevent the memory effect with NiCd storage batteries, you should first connect the charger once the storage batteries have been completely discharged.
The maximum permissible charging current amounts to 300 mA.
c) Positioning the Remote Control Antenna
Always pull the remote control antenna (Figure 1, Item 1) all the way out in order to achieve optimum remote control transmission to the model.
The antenna will have the strongest transmission to the model if it is positioned at approximately 90° to the immediate direction of the model. You will have the poorest
remote control transmission when you point the tip of the antenna directly at the model.
