Velux Substitute Instructions
Your remote should be ready to use upon arrival, as we've programmed it for you.
If it doesn't power on, the most likely reason is that the new CR2025 battery inside may have lost some charge during storage. This is a known characteristic of CR2025 batteries when not in use, and we apologize for any inconvenience.
To test the battery, press and hold the power button. If the red LED flashes continuously, the battery needs replacement.
Currently, we've observed that about 90% of our remotes are being delivered with low batteries due to storage. Please be aware that while this is an issue as of May 2025, we are taking steps to prevent this in the future.
SOLUTION
The only way to resolve this issue is to purchase the best possible CR2025 battery available.
Panasonic Branded CR2025 are recommended but other top brands will resolve this
