The Proper Handling of Batteries ❐ Before inserting the batteries, check whether the con- tacts of the candles, the remote control and the batteries are clean. Clean them if necessary. ❐ Use only the battery type specifi ed in the technical data. ❐ Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Do not use batteries of different types or brands, or batteries with different capacities. When replacing batteries, note the correct polarity (+ / –) (see also the imprint on the candles). ❐ Take the batteries out of the candles and the remote con- trol when they are discharged or if the article is not going to be used for a prolonged period. This will prevent any damage that might occur if a battery leaks. ❐ Remove a leaking battery from the article immediately. Clean the contacts before you insert a new battery. ❐ The batteries must not be recharged or reactivated by other means, dismantled, thrown into a fi re, immersed in fl uids, or short-circuited.17 The Proper Handling of the Article ❐ The article should only be used in closed rooms. ❐ Do not expose the article to extreme temperatures, strong temperature fl uctuations, direct sunlight or moisture. ❐ Maintain a suffi cient distance from sources of heat such as hobs, ovens or fi replaces. ❐ Do not drop the article or allow it to be knocked violently. ❐ Ensure that the article cannot become wet or fall into water. ❐ Do not use any corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the article.

against the items supplied to ensure they are comple- te and have not suffered any transport damage. If you should fi nd transport damage, do not use the article(!), but contact the customer service department immediate- ly. Keep the packaging so that you can store the article in it when you are not using it.

2. Insert the batteries which are supplied into the candles

(see the “Inserting / Changing Batteries” chapter, “Can- dles” section).18

3. Place the other two batteries into the remote control (see

the “Inserting / Changing Batteries” chapter, “Remote Control” section).

4. Attach the clips to the branches of your Christmas tree

as you wish. Inserting / Changing Batteries Candles

1. Release the candles by making a quarter turn counter

clockwise and removing them from the clips.

2. Remove the old batteries if necessary and insert a new

1.5 V battery, AAA type with the positive pole fi rst into

each of the candles (see also the imprint on the candles).

3. Replace the candles on the clips and make a quarter turn

clockwise. Remote Control

• The ON button is used to switch on the candles. You have two options here: – If you press the ON button for just a short time, the candles light up constantly. – If you keep the ON button pressed for around 3 seconds, the candles light up in fl icker mode.19 You can switch back and forth between constant light and fl icker mode at any time.

• With constant light you can increase or reduce the bright- ness by means of the + / - buttons.

• The OFF button is used to switch off the candles. Please note:

• If individual candles cannot be switched on, switched over or switched off directly, check the alignment of the candles and the remote control: To ensure perfect oper- ation, it is important that there is ‘visual contact’ between all candles and the remote control. If necessary, you should therefore rearrange the candles in the tree and / or choose a different location from which you can control the candles with the remote control. Be aware of the range of the remote control. This is around 5 m. Then press the ON or OFF button again. Note the different length of time for which you need to press the ON button, depending on what lighting mode you want (see above).

• If individual candles still cannot be switched on, check the fi t of the candles on the clips: The candles must not be screwed too tightly onto the clips. Turn the candles roughly a quarter turn anticlockwise and then try to switch the candles on again.

• If you subsequently buy more candles / sets of candles, all candles can be controlled using just one remote control. Troubleshooting If (individual) candles do not respond to the remote control, please check the following:

• Are batteries inserted into the candles and the remote control?20

• Are the batteries too weak or incorrectly inserted?

• Are the candles within the range of the remote control? / Is there ‘visual contact’ between the candles and the remote control? To ensure perfect operation, it is important that there is ‘visual contact’ between all candles and the remo- te control. If necessary, you should rearrange the candles in the tree and / or choose a different location from which you can control the candles with the remote control. Be aware of the range of the remote control. This is around 5 m. Then press the ON or OFF button again, depending on whether you want to switch on, switch over or switch off the candles. Note the different length of time for which you need to press the ON button, depending on what lighting mode you want (see the “Operation” chapter). Disposal The packaging material is recyclable.
