Memory

Preservation

This

unit

does

not

require

memory

preservation

batteries.

A

built-in

memory

power

back-up

system

preserves

the

contents

of

the

memory

during

power

failures

and

even

when

the

unit

is

unplugged.

The

unit

must

be

plugged

in

and

the

power

switch

turned

on

and

off

once

in

order

to

charge

the

back-up

system.

Note

thatsince

this

is

not

a

permanent

memory,

the

power

switch

must

be

turned

on

and

off

a

few

times

each

month

to

keep

the

back-up

system

operative.

The

memory

preservation

period

after

power

has

been

turned

off

varies

depending

on

climate

and

placement

of

the

unit.

On

the

average,

memory

contents

are

protected

over

a

period

of

a

few

weeks

after

the

last

time

power

has

been

turned

off.

Batteries

The

remote

control

transmitter

is

powered

by

two

batteries.

Before

using

this

unit

for

the

first

time,

insert

the

two

batteries

(included)

as

shown

in

the

diagram.

The

remote

control

trans-

mitter

has

no

on/off

switch.

Average

battery

life

is

one

year.

This

period

may

be

shorter

depending

on

the

frequency

of

use

and

environment

(temperature

and

humidity)

in

which

the

re-

mote

control

transmitter

is

used.

If

the

remote

control

transmitter

does

not

operate

even

though

front

panel

controls

function

normally,

the

batteries

should

be

replaced.

Use

only

batteries

listed

in

the

following

chart.

.

Do

not

leave

an

expired

battery

in

the

case

as

it

may

leak

or

damage

the

battery

case.

.

When

inserting

the

batteries,

be

sure

the

(+)

and

(—):

ends

are

properly

aligned.

.

Do

not

use

nickel-cadmium

(rechargeable)

batteries.

.

Do

not

use

one

specified

(manganese)

battery

and

one

al-

kaline

battery

at

the

same

time.

.

Replace

both

batteries

at

once;

do

not

use

one

old

and

one

new

battery

together.

Precautions

.

Remove

the

batteries

if

the

remote

control

transmitter

is

not

going

to

be

used

for

a

long

time.

The

batteries

of

the

remote

control

transmitter

must

be

replaced

periodically.

Remember,

however,

that

commands

will

be

re-

ceived

only

when

the

power

switch

of

the

TX-820

is

on.

This

unit

uses

infrared

rays.

Therefore,

commands

may

not

be

received

properly

if

the

front

panel

of

the

TX-820

is

exposed

to

bright

light.

To

prevent

this

from

occurring,

place

the

TX-820

so

that

it

is

not

directly

exposed

to

a

bright

light.

If

the

TX-820

is

placed

inside

an

audio

rack

behind

a

glass

door,

the

door

should

not

use

colored

glass

or

have

any

decorations

on

it

since

this

could

shorten

the

range

or

prevent

commands

from

being

received.

Use

of

other

infrared

remote

control

devices

in

the

same

room

may

cause

interference.

The

transmitter

operates

up

to

a

distance

of

about

five

meters

(16

feet).

the

transmitting

window

must

always

be

pointed

at

the

reception

window

when

a

command

is

sent

to

the

TX-820.

If

this

remote

control

transmitter

does

not

operate

properly,

confirm

that

the

batteries

are

not

dead.

If

the

problem

persists,

contact

your

Onkyo

service

center.
