Checking the battery level

If you’re having trouble with your Ignite voice remote, one of the first things you should do is check the battery level.

Use voice commands and say ‘Battery’ or ‘Remote settings’ in to your voice remote. The battery life will appear on your screen.

Or you can do it this way:

  1. Press the ‘Rogers’ button on the remote.
  2. Select ‘Settings’ (Gear icon).
  3. Click on ‘Remote Settings’ to view the battery level.

Note: If your LED blinks red five times when pressing any button, this indicates that your battery power is extremely low and the AA batteries should be replaced as soon as possible as this can prevent the remote from functioning properly.

Replacing the batteries

  1. On the underside of your voice remote, locate the tab or a raised ridge. Press down on it and slide the battery cover down to open.
  2. Remove the old batteries.
  3. Insert two new or fully charged AA batteries into the battery slots, matching the negative and positive sides.
  4. Slide the battery cover back to close.

Still having issues?

You might need to re-pair or re-program your remote to work with your Ignite EntertainmentTM Box, your TV or other devices.
