  • Attempt to re-pair the remote control by following the "Pairing the Remote" instructions provided in Section 1.2.
• Voice Control Not Working:
  • Confirm that the remote is successfully paired via Bluetooth to your Xumo Stream Box or XUMO TV, as voice control relies on this connection.
  • When using voice commands, speak clearly and hold the remote closer to your mouth.
• Specific Buttons Unresponsive:
  • Inspect the area around the unresponsive button for any debris or stickiness and clean if necessary.
  • If only a few buttons are affected, a re-pairing procedure might resolve the issue.
