Remote control usage tips

30 degrees

6 meters

• The remote control must be held at an
angle within 30 degrees of the TV's
remote control sensor window to
function correctly. The distance
between the remote control and the
sensors should not exceed 6 meters.

• Do not cover the sensor window on the
front of the TV, or place objects in front
of it which will block the direct line-of­sight between the remote control and
the sensor window on TV.

• Do not let the remote control become wet, or place it in humid environments (like
bathrooms.)

• If the remote control sensor window on the TV is in direct sunlight or strong light, the
remote control may not operate properly. In this situation, change the light source or
readjust the angle of your TV, or operate the remote control from a location closer to
the remote control sensor window on the TV.
