What is in the box: one remote (batteries not included). You will need two AAA cells.

How to pair this remote with your Croma Google TV:

1. Switch on the TV using the original remote or the power button on the set, and stay on the home screen.
2. Insert two AAA batteries into the new remote (not included).
3. Hold the Home + Back buttons together for about 5 seconds until the LED on the remote starts blinking. (This is the standard combo for most Android TV remotes. If yours behaves differently, check the original remote pairing steps since the replacement follows the same method.)
4. The TV will show 'Pair new remote' or detect the remote within 30 to 60 seconds.
5. Once the LED stops blinking and stays solid, the remote is paired. Test the volume button.

First-time tip: keep the remote within 30 cm of the TV during pairing. After pairing, it works from across the room.

This is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) remote, not an IR remote, so it must be paired with the TV before it works. The microphone button activates Google Assistant for voice search. Dedicated hotkeys for Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, and Google Play are present below the navigation pad.

If your TV is currently paired to a different remote, the new remote may need the TV to be in pairing mode (TV settings, Remotes and Accessories, Add new remote). Some Android TVs only allow one paired voice remote at a time. If pairing fails on the first try, remove the batteries, wait 10 seconds, reinsert them, and try the button combo again.

FAQ:

Q: Will this work without pairing?
A: No. All Bluetooth voice remotes must be paired once. After that, the TV remembers it.

Q: Does it need internet to work?
A: The remote itself does not. Voice search needs the TV to be online.

Q: My TV shows multiple remotes in the settings. Which one do I unpair?
A: Unpair any old or unused remotes before adding this one. Most Croma Google TVs allow only one active voice remote.

Q: Can I use this with the 43-inch Croma Full HD model?
A: Only if that model uses the exact same remote layout and Bluetooth pairing method. Match the button arrangement key by key with your original.

Q: How long do the batteries last?
A: About 6 to 8 months with typical daily use. Bluetooth remotes consume slightly more power than IR remotes because the connection is always on standby.
