Remote Control Doesn’t Work

• Something might be between the remote and the remote sensor on the component. Make sure there is a clear path.
• Maybe the remote isn’t aimed directly at the component (TV or VCR) that you’re trying to operate.
• Maybe remote is not in TV Mode. Press the TV button so remote will control TV.
• Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead, or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote. (Note, if you remove the

batteries, you may have to reprogram the remote to operate other components.)

• You might need to drain the remote’s microprocessor: remove batteries and press the number 1 button for at least 60 seconds.

Release the 1 button, replace the batteries, and (if necessary) program the remote again.
