Instructions
Switch your remote control into the "Off" position when you are not using it. Leaving the controls powered on is the fastest way to drain your battery power.
Take the batteries out of the remote control when you are not using it. Even with the device turned off, the contacts are still in a position to use a little power.
Leave your unused batteries in any dry, room-temperature container. Ensure that none of the contacts are touching anything or else you will have the same effect as if you left them in the device.
