While setting up your LG TV, the first thing you need to do is program your remote controller. As some remotes don’t come paired with the TV, you have to carry out the programming steps manually. If this is the phase you’re stuck in, then our detailed guide will help you get through this process.
Let’s see how the programming works in the following sections.
How to Pair/Program LG Remote to TV
To pair your LG TV remote for the first time with your TV, you need to know the right remote combination. Also, the pairing process of the remote is based on the remote variant you’re having.
In the upcoming section, you will see how to program every LG TV remote model to the TV in an easy way.

- Keep holding the button until you see the Power button lights up three times.
- Now, you will see a message on your TV saying, “Remote Registration is Disconnected. Please press the OK(Wheel) button to Register.”
- After seeing the message, push the Wheel button on your remote and finish the pairing.
