Using the PRISMA remote
Fitting the batteries
The PRISMA remote is powered by two LR03 batteries, also known as AAA batteries. Before using the remote you need to fit the two batteries supplied with the remote.
- Press slightly on the top of the battery compartment on the back of the remote:
- Slide the back cover parallel to the case towards the bottom of the remote and remove it:
Do not attempt to use a metal object to open the cover, as you may scratch the case.
- Insert the two batteries, observing the correct polarity indicated by the ‘+’ signs on the inside of each battery holder:
- Replace the back cover by sliding it towards the middle of the remote, until it clicks into place.
The batteries should last for about a year with normal use.
