Figure 3: Battery installation diagram.

2. No Pairing Required: This remote control operates using infrared (IR) technology and does not require any programming or pairing with your Apple TV device. It is ready to use immediately after battery installation.
3. Unlock Previous Device (if applicable): If you are replacing an older Apple TV remote (1st, 2nd, or 3rd Gen), you might need to "unlock" the old device using its original remote control first. This ensures the new remote can connect properly.
   • Click the TV Power button on the YOSUN remote.
   • Wait for the "unlocked" icon (two interlocking circles, one purple, one orange) to appear on your screen.
   • Click the TV Power button once more to "unlock" your old device.
   • Once unlocked, the YOSUN remote should function as usual.

   Note: The "Unlock / Locked" function only supports Apple TV (1st / 2nd / 3rd Gen).

Troubleshooting
