Just got a new sky Q box and I can’t control volume or signal with the remote when I try and set it

I can't control tv volume or signal using the sky remote but when I'm trying to set up the remote to be able to o just get stuck on a pleade wait screen infinitely. I have a JVC tv and have just got the sky box around 12 o'clock. What should I do?

Hi @Laura_Jowett 

First reboot your Q box.

To reboot press Standby on your Sky Q remote (if the box responds to the remote), and then switch off and unplug at the mains.
Wait at least 30 secs and then Plug back in and switch your Sky Q box back on at the mains.
Wait for the on screen instructions to disappear and the front led to turn Amber. Then wait for 30 secs before you press Home on your Sky Q remote or if this is not working press the standby button on the front of the Q box (Amber led)

note: some features may take up to 5 minutes to return.
Then Try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the remote led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
