Setup Guide

1. Battery Installation

The remote requires two AAA batteries (not included). Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote, insert the batteries according to the polarity indicators (+/-), and close the cover securely.

2. Initial Setup for Roku Devices

This remote is largely pre-programmed for compatible Roku devices. For initial pairing or if the remote does not work directly:

1. Unplug your Roku device from its power source.
2. Wait for 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Plug your Roku device back in. The remote should automatically pair with your Roku player during the startup process.

3. Programming Volume & Power Keys for Roku Box (Requires Original IR Remote)

For Roku boxes, the volume and power keys on this universal remote must be programmed using your original Roku IR remote. Do not purchase this remote if your original IR remote is unavailable for this step.

1. Ensure both the tiebutie remote and your original Roku IR remote have fresh batteries.
