blue TV remote controls

The LED on the remote control usually turns white when you press a button.
If the remote control flashes red when you press a button, it is no longer connected to your TV. If the remote control flashes red several times, the TV-Box is too far away or not connected to the power supply.

Your remote control is no longer connected with the TV. Take the following steps to reconnect:

1. Press the WPS button on the TV-Box for 3 seconds.
2. A prompt will appear on the TV. Press OK on the blue TV remote control.
3. The LED flashes white while it connects. The remote control is connected as soon as it stops flashing.

Red flashing can mean the following:

• The TV-Box is not within range of the remote control. Move closer to the TV-Box.
• The TV-Box does not have power. Check whether the TV-Box is plugged into a socket.
• The TV-Box needs to be rebooted for technical reasons. Reboot the TV-Box.
  

The batteries in your remote control are probably (almost) done. Change the batteries.
You can also check the battery level by going to the main menu (‘Home’ button) > Settings (cogwheel top left) > System > Remote control.
