IR sensor

The remote control of the TV uses RF (radio
frequency) to send its commands to the TV. With RF,
you do not need to point the remote control at the
TV.
However, the TV can also receive commands from a
remote control that uses IR (infrared) to send
commands. If you use such a remote control, always
make sure you point the remote control at the
infrared sensor on the front of the TV.
