__Detailed instructions__

Your TELUS Remote is able to control your TELUS TV Digital Box using Infrared (IR) connectivity by default right out of the box.

For the most reliable connection, it is recommended to pair your TELUS Remote with your TELUS TV Digital Box using Bluetooth. Bluetooth connectivity has a longer working range than IR and does not require a direct line of sight between the remote and box. This gives you more freedom for where you place your TELUS TV Digital Box. 

Bluetooth connectivity is also required for Google Assistant connectivity. Please see [__Using your TELUS Remote and Google Assistant to control your TELUS TV Digital Box with your voice__](https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/telus-tv-digital-box-remote?hash=using-your-telus-remote-and-google-assistant-to-control-your-telus-tv-digital-box-with-your-voice#using-your-telus-remote-and-google-assistant-to-control-your-telus-tv-digital-box-with-your-voice) for more information.

During the first-time installation or following a factory reset of your TELUS TV Digital Box, you will be prompted to pair your TELUS remote with your TELUS TV Digital Box via Bluetooth. 

- Simply press the __7__ and __9__ buttons for 3 seconds to pair. In some cases, your remote may pair automatically. You will see __Status: Remote control paired__ once the TELUS Remote has been successfully paired
- If your remote becomes unpaired at any time, you can always reconnect by pressing the __7__ and __9__ buttons for 3 seconds
- If your remote is unresponsive, try a new set of batteries, or [contact us](https://www.telus.com/en/support/contact-us) for a replacement

__Unpairing your remote__

If you would like to unpair the Bluetooth connection between your TELUS Remote and your TELUS TV Digital Box, you can revert to IR connectivity. From the Home screen, navigate to __Settings → Device settings → Remotes & Accessories → TELUS Remote__ and select __Unpair__.

Please note that Google Assistant will not function without a Bluetooth connection.

TELUS TV Digital Box Remote / Using your TELUS Remote and Google Assistant to control your TELUS TV Digital Box with your voice

__Quick instructions__

1. Check battery life. From the __Home__ screen, navigate to __Settings__ → __Device settings__ → __Remotes & Accessories__ → __TELUS Remote__ → __Battery__. If the result is ‘Poor’, replace them with 2 new AAA batteries
2. Ensure firmware is updated. From the __Home__ screen, navigate to __Settings → Device settings → Remotes & Accessories → TELUS Remote → Firmware update__. If an update is available, download and install by pressing __OK__ on your remote
3. If your remote control becomes unresponsive, unpair and pair the remote using the instructions above

__Detailed instructions__

Your first troubleshooting step for the TELUS Remote should be to check the battery life. From the Home screen, navigate to __Settings__ → __Device settings__ → __Remotes & Accessories__ → __TELUS Remote__ → __Battery__. You will see ‘Full’, ‘Good’, ‘Fair’ or ‘Poor’. If you see ‘Poor’, you should replace the existing batteries with 2 new AAA batteries. You may also want to ensure that your batteries are seated firmly in their connectors and that the battery cover is secure.

The next troubleshooting step should be to ensure that the remote control firmware is up-to-date. From the Home screen, you can check for firmware updates by navigating to __Settings__ → __Device settings__ → __Remotes & Accessories__ → __TELUS Remote__ → __Firmware update__. If a firmware update is available, you will be able to download and install it by pressing the ‘OK’ button on your remote.

If your remote becomes unresponsive, try un-pairing and re-pairing the remote by following these steps:

1. Press and hold the __4__ and __6__ buttons until the LED on your TELUS remote lights up solid green
2. Press __OK__ and wait for the LED to flash green twice (the remote has now been un-paired from your TELUS TV Digital Box)
3. Press any key and wait a few seconds (this will cause your remote to connect via IR mode)
4. The LED should now be flashing white with any key press
5. Press the __OK__ button on the remote while pointing the remote at your TELUS TV Digital Box. This will trigger the Bluetooth pairing mechanism between your TELUS remote and TELUS TV Digital Box

To pair or unpair your TELUS Remote from your TELUS TV Digital Box, follow the steps above. To factory reset your TELUS Remote, please see below.  

TELUS TV Digital Box Remote / Troubleshooting your TELUS Remote
