With Fast Media access, multi-media computing is a snap! Connecting Your Remote Control's Receiver 1. Carefully connect the receiver's yellow colored connector to the yellow labeled Serial Port A (10101) on your system's lower rear panel. 2. Route the receiver and its cable around toward the front of the system. Don't let anything rest on the cable. The receiver's dark-colored lense should face you in the same way that your monitor screen does. Make sure that nothing blocks the lens. If desired, you can attach the receiver to any convenient location on your system's case with the adhesive strip included with the receiver. Remote Control Features Two Piece system includes hand-held, battery-operated transmitter and separate low-profile receiver. Control your system's multimedia components (e.g., optional CD-ROM Drive or Speakerphone) from a lightweight, compact unit. Transmitter doubles as a pointing device, giving you cordless mouse emulation. Works automatically when your system launches Packard Bell (TM) Navigator(TM) or Microsoft (R) Windows(R) Compatible with Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 3.1 and above, and Windows(R)95. Installing Batteries in Your Remote Control To install or change your remote control's batteries: 1. Turn the hand-held transmitter over so that you can see the battery cover on its underside. 2. Press the battery cover's arrow, then slide the battery cover open (in the direction of the arrow) so that you can see the battery compartment. 3. Install (2) new AA batteries in the battery compartment. Make sure that the + terminal on each battery faces toward the narrow end of the transmitter. 4. Replace the battery cover carefully and slide it closed (opposite direction of the arrow). WARNING: Be sure to replace weak batteries promptly! To avoid risk of damage resulting from battery leakage, don't leave weak batteries in your remote control. Using Your Remote Control To use the hand-held transmitter: 1. Make sure you're in either Packard Bell(TM) Navigator(TM) or the Microsoft(R) Windows(R) environment. 2. Aim the front of the remote control transmitter toward the receiver's dark-colored lens.
