How to tune freeview without remote

My daughter lost the remote for the freeview box and now I can't tune her tv which hasn't got an in-built tuner.
It's a Sony VTX-D800U freeview box and I thought it was a decent one but now I'm not so sure as it hasn't got any buttons apart from prog -, + and on/off
All of the other functions such as tuning were only accessible via the remote.
What are my options please?

I sounds to me like your only option is to find the remote or buy another freeview set top box.
There is a very outside chance that an all-in-one remote may be made to work but I wouldn't put ant money on it.0 -
How can she "lose" the remote control of a Freeview box? Did she take it out of the house? Did she put it in the bin?
It must be on the premises somewhere.
Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:
As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
you'd now be better off living in one.

Teenage girl with a bombsite of a bedroom which very rarely gets a full sort out, this includes hauling all manner of stuff into bags for recycle and refuse etc.
Not to worry though as I just found a replacement on Amazon for £12.97

Surely this is at least motivation for her to do that then."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"
