Onida TV remotes generally come pre-configured for use with Onida TVs, meaning they do not require additional programming. However, if you need to pair or set up the remote, here are typical steps:
Insert Batteries
- Ensure the remote has fresh batteries inserted in the correct orientation.
Turn on the TV
- Make sure the TV is powered on.
Point and Use
- Point the remote at the TV and press the power button. The TV should respond immediately.
Troubleshooting
- No Response: Ensure the remote has fresh batteries and is pointed directly at the TV. Check for any obstructions between the remote and the TV's IR sensor.
- Unresponsive Functions: If certain buttons do not work, try replacing the batteries or resetting the remote by removing the batteries and pressing all buttons before reinserting the batteries.
- Resetting the Remote: Some issues can be resolved by resetting the remote. To do this, remove the batteries, press each button a couple of times, and then reinsert the batteries.
Battery Installation
- Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote.
- Insert two AAA or AA batteries (depending on the model), ensuring correct polarity.
- Close the battery compartment.
Additional Notes
- The layout and functionality can vary slightly depending on the specific Onida TV model and remote version.
