INSTALLING BATTERIES
Open the battery compartment of the receiver and transmitter by pressing down the battery door latch. Insert two
"AAA" batteries with correct polarity. Align the battery door and snap the latch back in place.
EZ-SYNC TECHNOLOGY
With both units on, sync the receiver with the transmitter by pressing and holding down the VOL/SYNC buttons for 2
seconds on both the transmitter and receiver. It does not matter what order.
SYNC LOSS ALARM
The receiver will begin silently flashing after loss of the synced connection for 60 seconds. The receiver will
continue flashing silently for 3 minutes. In this time the units will attempt to re-sync with one another. This gives
the receiver time to re-sync before notifying you, which makes the receiver more convenient to use when close
to the receiver's range limit.
After 3 minutes, an audible alarm will sound on the receiver for 60 seconds to alert
you that they will need to be re-synced.
