Adjusting the Remote Control Antenna

Be sure to set the remote control antenna (back of the receiver) straight up so you can use the
remote control from as far away as possible. Don't let the antenna touch anything.

If your UHF Pro Remote Control 2 isn't working well from far away, you may be
experiencing interference from objects near your receiver. To improve your remote
control's range, try the following:

Place the receiver higher than all of the other equipment in your
entertainment center.

Provide room above the receiver so that the remote control antenna can
be installed straight up. If you cannot install the antenna straight up, tilt
the antenna at about a 30° angle.

Place the remote control antenna outside the entertainment center by
using a coaxial cable to connect the antenna to the receiver.

Try moving the receiver to other locations.

Move any nearby over-the-air antennas away from the remote control
antenna. Do not place an over-the-air antenna on top of your receiver.

Install a UHF attenuator. See Installing a UHF Attenuator for details.
