Remedy
Check the following, and try the proposed solution:
Make sure that the batteries are inserted with the polarity properly
■
aligned.
Make sure that the remote control batteries are fresh. If they are worn
■
out, replace them with new batteries.
Make sure that the remote control is within correct operating range.
■
Make sure that the remote sensor window on the front of the TV is not
■
under too much light, direct sunlight, or strong artificial light.
Make sure that no obstacles are between the remote control and the
■
sensor window on the front of the TV.
Make sure that the remote control is aimed at the TV and is not farther
■
than 16.4 feet (5 meters) away.
To be able to add a channel to the Fav button favorites list, the channel
must be in the channel list. The Setup Wizard, or the Auto Scan in the
OSD Channel menu, creates the channel list when it searches for
channels. Run the Setup Wizard or the Auto Scan; see "Starting the
Setup Wizard" on page 64 or "Searching for channels" on page 56.
Try all listed codes for the equipment brands you are trying to set up,
■
or try programming the remote control using the auto setup mode.
Refer to "Programming the Remote Control for a Home Entertainment
Device" on page 43.
Make sure the equipment can be operated with an infrared remote
■
control.
Replace the batteries in the remote control.
