Notes
• With normal use, the batteries should last about three to six months. 
• If you do not use the remote commander for an extended period of time, remove 
the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery leakage.
• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.
• Do not use different types of batteries together.
• Do not leave the remote commander in an extremely hot or humid place.
• Do not drop any foreign object into the remote casing, particularly when replacing 
the batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct light from the sun or lighting apparatus.  
Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• Some buttons may not work with certain Sony TVs.
