- Hold the 1 and 3 buttons for 3 seconds, then wait 10 seconds. Your screen will say “Connecting: We are currently connecting your remote” followed by “Your remote is now connected”.
If pairing still fails:
- Turn off your TV and unplug it from the power source.
- Reset your remote following the instructions above.
- Plug the device back in and turn on your TV.
- Repeat the pairing remote instructions.
If that doesn’t work:
Replace the batteries in your remote and repeat the pairing remote instructions.
Why doesn’t my voice remote recognize my voice commands?
Voice commands only work when your remote is paired and your device is connected to the internet. To check if your device is online, go to Settings > Network and make sure the device is connected. If it’s not, try reconnecting to the internet or restarting your modem or router.
If your device is connected but your remote still isn’t recognizing your voice commands, make sure you’re speaking clearly and at a natural, conversational volume.
There are a couple ways to utilize the Large Button remote's voice command feature.
- Hold the remote 1-8 inches away from your face, then press and hold the Voice Control button until you're done talking.
- Utilize tap-to-talk, exclusively on the Large Button remote. Tap the Voice Control button and say your voice command within 2.5 seconds without holding the button down. You'll hear a tone when the mic activates and another when it deactivates.
Tip: Reducing background noise can help your device recognize your voice commands.
If you’re still having trouble, follow the instructions on this page to reset and re-pair your remote.
