Preparations
The remote control for the VR-509 incorporates the RF transmission
function. To make sure receiving the RF remote signal, connect the
provided RF remote antenna.
1 Insert the jack of the provided RF remote antenna into the
ANTENNA RF REMOTE jack.
2 Distribute the antenna wire vertically and fix it.
• Distribute the antenna away from the metallic panel.
Important notes
Here is list of adjustment which can maximize the operation of
your remote control. For optimal operation of the remote control:
1 Aim the remote control toward the room where the receiver is
located.
2 Do not position the receiver and remote control near metal (such as
heat ducts). Metal can absorb RF signals.
3 Make sure the batteries in the remote control are fully charged. Weak
batteries will affect the range of the remote control.
4 When there is an obstruction around other equipments that send
signal from the remote control, the control distance of the RF remote
signal will be short.

Note
• The tests for range limits of the remote control and the receiver are
conducted in open-air distance test. Actual distance of the signal
will be based on the construction of the building the unit is being
used in as well as other factors such as outside interference.
KENWOOD components (Except for DVD player): System control ^
Other components : IR REPEATER
1 Connect the IR repeater to the device as described in the

2 Connect the IR repeater cable(s) to the IR REPEATER OUT
jack(s).
Notes
• IR repeaters send a signal similar to the device’s own remote control.
Xantech repeaters (models 282-00, 286-00, or 283-00) are compatible
with your new audio-video receiver.
