Franke disposal with wireless remote control shows F1 on the receiver module; remote will not start the unit.

Safety first: Turn OFF power to the receiver module before opening any covers.

• Replace remote battery: Open the Franke remote and install a new battery of the specified type. Ensure correct polarity.
• Re-pair the remote: Press and hold the pairing button on the Franke receiver module (usually under the sink) until the LED flashes. Then press the ON button on the remote to complete pairing. Refer to your model's manual for exact steps.
• Reduce interference: Move other RF devices (Wi-Fi routers, cordless phones) away from the receiver if possible and avoid enclosing the receiver in metal cabinets.
• Test with manual switch: If your system also has a wall or air switch, test the disposal using that. If it works manually but not via remote, the Franke RF remote kit is likely faulty.
• Replace receiver: If pairing fails and F1 persists, replace the Franke RF receiver module.
