In Short

Connect your Hisense TV and remote to the same Wi-Fi network. Use the RemoteNOW app for newer models or try manual pairing by pressing specific button combinations on the remote. For older models, enter a pairing code displayed on the TV screen.

Pairing methods

Using the RemoteNOW app (for newer models)

  • Download and install: Get the RemoteNOW app from Google Play Store (Android 4.1+) or App Store (iOS 10.0+)
  • Connect to Wi-Fi: Ensure both your Hisense TV and smartphone are on the same Wi-Fi network
  • Launch the app: Open RemoteNOW and follow the on-screen prompts
  • Select your TV: Choose your Hisense TV name when it appears in the app
  • Enter pairing code: Input the 8-digit code displayed on your TV screen

Manual pairing (for various models)

  • Point at TV: Aim the remote control at your Hisense TV
  • Press and hold: Simultaneously press and hold the MUTE and ENTER buttons
  • Wait for confirmation: Keep holding until the green light on the remote blinks twice
  • Check TV screen: Look for "Applying IR/RF setup" message, indicating successful pairing

Using pairing codes (for older models)

  • Enter code mode: Press TV, then hold Select and red buttons together until the remote's LED flashes twice
  • Try common codes: Enter 0536, 2427, or other codes mentioned in user forums
  • Find specific code: Press 990 and note the number of LED blinks for each digit of your TV's specific code

Troubleshooting

If pairing is unsuccessful:

  • Check compatibility: Ensure your Hisense TV model is compatible with the remote or app you're using
  • Restart devices: Turn off and unplug your TV for a few minutes, then restart your smartphone
  • Update software: Check for and install any available updates for your TV's software
  • Clear cache: On your TV, clear the cache in the system settings
  • Contact support: If issues persist, reach out to Hisense customer support for assistance

Alternative remote options
