Note
You can also program the remote to control other equipment you have connected to the TV. See page 71 for instructions.
Aim the remote control at the front of the TV, within about a 25° horizontal angle to the left or right and a 15° vertical angle up or down from the remote receiver.
Make sure the room lighting is not too bright and not shining directly on the remote control or the TV receiver window. Keep the transmitter area on the top of the remote and the TV receiver window clean.
To turn off the remote control’s beeping sound, hold down the Menu button for 2 seconds, until the remote control light stops flashing. Then press the Volume down button. (To turn it back on, hold down the Menu button for 2 seconds, until the remote control light stops flashing. Then press the Volume up button.)
