Setup
button (about 3 seconds) until the Status LED changes from red to green.

Why doesn’t the Voice Remote recognize
my voice commands?
If your commands are not recognized, make sure you are speaking clearly and at a natural,
conversational volume. Be sure to hold the remote 1 to 8 inches from you while speaking a command
and hold down the
Microphone
button until you finish speaking your command. If you are still
having trouble, consider whether there are other sources of noise near you that may be interfering with
your voice command (for example, loud TV volume).
