Finding the remote control (only models supplied with a buzzer built-in remote control)

The remote control supplied with the TV has a feature that allows you to find the remote control by playing a sound from a built-in buzzer when you cannot find it, such as when you do not remember where you left it (for example, under a cushion or hidden under a newspaper), or when you are watching a movie in a dark room.

Use the following procedures to find the remote control.

Using the power button on the TV

  1. Press the power button on the TV.
    A menu is displayed on the TV screen.
  2. Follow the on-screen instructions and select [Find remote] on the displayed menu.
    A buzzer plays from the remote control.

Using the built-in MIC on the TV (only TV's with a built-in MIC)

  1. With the TV's built-in MIC enabled, say “Ok Google, Where is the remote control?” to the TV.
    A buzzer plays from the remote control.

Note

  • The [Find remote] option, which is displayed by pressing the power button on the TV, is only displayed when a remote control with a built-in buzzer is paired with the TV.
  • The feature to find a remote control using the built-in MIC on the TV is available only to some models/countries/regions/languages.
  • To find a remote control using the TV's built-in MIC, the TV must be on (in some languages, you can find a remote control using the TV's built-in MIC even if the TV is off).
  • If your TV is connected to the Internet and you have set a Google Account, the find feature using the TV's built-in MIC will be enabled. If you have not set a Google Account, this feature will not be enabled. Depending on the model, you may not be able to find it unless the TV is turned on.
  • There is a limit to the distance you can search for the remote control from your TV. The buzzer cannot be played by the remote control in places where the signals do not reach.
