Inserting the Batteries
1. Open the battery door:
Push the battery door where it comes to a point, near the center
of the back of the remote, to open.
2. Insert the batteries. Match the + and - marks on the batteries to
the + and - marks in the compartment.
3. Replace the battery door.
Remote Control Troubleshooting
Press any button on the remote. Does the light above the TiVo button on
the remote flash?
If the red light does not flash, make sure the batteries are positioned
correctly in the remote. If they are correctly positioned, try a new set
of batteries.
If the red light on the remote does flash, but the lights on the front of
the TiVo box do not respond to the remote, restart your TiVo box by
unplugging it, waiting 15 seconds, then plugging it back in.
See the Troubleshooting chapter for more help with your remote control.
