Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your remote control, please refer to the following common solutions:

|---|---|---|
| Remote does not work at all. | Dead or incorrectly inserted batteries. | Check battery orientation. Replace with fresh AAA batteries. |
| Remote works intermittently. | Weak batteries, obstruction, or remote too far from TV. | Replace batteries. Ensure clear line of sight to TV. Move closer to the TV (within 10 meters). |
| Specific buttons do not respond. | Button malfunction or TV not supporting the function. | Ensure your TV model supports the specific function (e.g., Smart TV apps). If other buttons work, the specific button might be faulty. |
