Sending the TV's remote signal through the sound
bar (TV Remote Repeater function)
When the TV Remote Repeater function is enabled, the sound bar relays the TV's
remote signal received by the front sensor to the rear transmitter. This function should
be enabled when you place the sound bar in front of your TV and you cannot operate
your TV with the TV's remote control.
This function is available only when your TV's remote control uses infrared signals.
