scope: australian Samsung smart remote and device combinations using return and play/pause. the uk video is a tv example.
when to get help
- do not apply this sequence to an unconfirmed aftermarket remote or try arbitrary factory-reset button combinations. a failed connection needs the correct device and remote instructions, not more guessed sequences.
steps
- check the remote and device
confirm the remote reference is supported by the tv or monitor. charge it first if it is rechargeable.
- start pairing
point the remote at the device's remote sensor. where the documented buttons are return and play/pause, hold them together for at least three seconds.
- wait for confirmation
look for the device's connection message. if the buttons differ or no message appears, use that model's manual or contact Samsung support.
