Seriously? Reading the artciel was not necessary - buy an extra remote - trust me - as soon as you come home with a new one - it will show up. They are small and hard to keep track of.

The only exception was if the OP had paired the original remote - they would need to hold menu and left arrow on the new remote for 6 secs to unpair.


Pairing is only needed when you have more than one device in the same room to stop one remote controlling all devices.
