One of the critical things when using a Madman Marine remote control is to ensure there are two batteries installed in each fob. The following instructions will assist in getting the number of batteries right ...

Shalt thou use two batteries, no more no less
Two shalt be the number thou shalt use
And the number of the batteries shall be two
Three shalt thou not use
Nor either use thou one
Excepting that thou then proceed to two
Four is right out
Once the number two, being the second number be reached, then
Usest thou Madman Marine remote control.
