✎✎ The VOICE˜button on your remote is always activated. If you want to use the TV's microphone, turn on Voice Control (System

✎✎ If a menu option or function is not supported by the Voice Control function, we suggest trying the Motion control function. To use the Motion control, raise your hand while opening it toward the screen, hold it for a moment and then wave it 3–4 time to the left and right. Motion control starts. If the Motion control starts, the cursor is displayed at the center of the screen and the Motion guide bar size is at the bottom of the screen.
