- Make sure you are within the effective transmission distance (up to 8 meters).
- Buttons not working:
- Clean the remote control, especially around the buttons, to remove any dirt or debris that might be causing stickiness.
- If only specific buttons are unresponsive, the remote might be damaged and require replacement.
