Remote control help

However, https://www.umc-uk.co.uk/instruction-manuals/Sharp/5111K suggests that source change selection the [OK] button is the {Vol +} one on the TV... See page 13
Try that button?

Agreed.

Yep i did try both standby and every other single one seperately just to check i wasnt missing something lol and still no joy

I'm sorry, I know it sounds condescending, but can i ask you to get to the menu, press "Channel Down", until First Time Installation" is highlighted, then press "Volume Up" and see what happens?
It's just to satisfy my curiosity and if it doesn't work, there's something else going on with your set!

There isnt a part though showing first time installation. When i go to menu it says picture/ media/ channels/ network/ settings. I presumed it would be in settings so when its highlighted i have went through every time and tried every single button to try and actually go into this if that makes sense but no joy.

Will try that exactly when come home from work but defo have tried every button when the settings is highlighted and nothing letting me in

So just to update. After a lot of button pressing it turns out the button to select an option is by pressing the middle of menu and source button very quickly. So got into settings. There is nothing about remote control pairing there so I tried reset the tv. Nothing really different then. Also tried first time installation but all I get when I do this is the picture below. I am completely stumped and think it’s about time to give up

Ring the helpline?

And then did you press the green and yellow buttons together on the remote for a few seconds?

 

[lauralou74]

Yep I did indeed. Nothing happened . Going to call the helpline here shortly.

It does seem to say Infared for some reason on the connectivity part. I do have an RF remote though but i just dont seem to be able to pair it thats the problem which i will still have i imagine if order these

The replacement remotes work out of the box, no pairing is required. Had a Sharps, Polaroid and JVC tv all just rebranded chinese tv all had identical remotes and worked with any of the 3 tv's.
