you find the remote. If the remote

control is permanently lost or too

damaged to use, call the Service Center

expect.

• The remote control may be missing

batteries, the batteries may be

incorrectly placed in the remote, or the

batteries may be weak or dead.

• You may be using the wrong remote

control (1 or 2) for the menus (TV1 or

TV2) you are trying to operate.

• If the batteries are missing or dead,

insert fresh AAA-size batteries.

If the remote has fresh batteries, check

whether they are placed according to the

label diagram. If not, remove them and

place correctly.

work well from far away.

• You may be experiencing interference

from objects near your receiver antenna.

• Make sure the UHF antenna is

connected to the receiver and not

touching anything else.

• Vary the tilt angle of the receiver's UHF

antenna. Locate the UHF antenna tip

away from other electronics equipment

or metal surfaces, even if separated by

wooden shelving.

• Move the receiver to different locations.

For best results, place the receiver as

high as possible, above all other

equipment in your entertainment center.

• Place the UHF antenna outside the

entertainment center by using a coaxial

cable to connect it to the receiver.
