• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the
main unit as shown on the diagram.
• The remote control unit can be used from a straight
distance of approximately 7 meters from the main unit,
but this distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in
the way or if the remote control unit is not pointed directly
at the remote sensor.
• The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal
angle of up to 30 degrees with respect to the remote
sensor.
NOTES:
• It may be difficult to operate the remote control unit if the
remote sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong
artificial light.
• Do not press buttons on the main unit and remote control
unit simultaneously. Doing so may result in malfunction.
• Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-type noise
nearby may result in malfunction, so keep the set as far
away from such devices as possible.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
• The included remote control unit (RC-904) can be used to operate not only the AVR-2802 but other remote
control compatible DENON components as well. In addition, the memory contains the control signals for
other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-Denon remote control compatible products.
Inserting the batteries
q Remove the remote control unit’s rear
cover.
w Set three R6P/AA batteries in the battery
compartment in the indicated direction.
e Put the rear cover back on.
Notes on Batteries
• Use R6P/AA batteries in the remote control unit.
• The batteries should be replaced with new ones
approximately once a year, though this depends on the
frequency of usage.
• Even if less than a year has passed, replace the batteries
with new ones if the set does not operate even when the
remote control unit is operated nearby the set. (The
included battery is only for verifying operation. Replace it
with a new battery as soon as possible.)
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the
proper direction, following the “≈” and “√” marks in the
battery compartment.
• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:
• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.
• Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of
batteries in flames.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit when
you do not plan to use it for an extended period of time.
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the fluid off
the inside of the battery compartment and insert new
batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, have the new batteries
ready and insert them as quickly as possible.
• The learned remote control signals may be cleared if no
batteries are in the remote control unit for about 5
seconds.
The factory-installed codes are in permanent memory,
however.
