Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices,
you may want to record the codes for future reference. If
you used the Direct Code Entry method, this is easy. Just
find the codes you entered and make a note of them in the
boxes below. If you used one of the Code Search methods to
program your remote or if you used the Direct Entry method
but don’t remember the code, you will need to retrieve each
device’s five-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and writing
it down will save you time if you ever need to program the
remote again (e.g., if programming is lost when you change
the batteries). If the codes are recorded, you can use the
Direct Entry method to reprogram your remote to control your
devices, which is quick and easy.

Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
In most cases, the keys on

Many keys on this remote
have other functions as well.
Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing

Care and Maintenance
• Keep the remote dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the remote only in normal temperature
environments.
• Handle the remote gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.
• Keep the remote away from dust and dirt.
• Wipe the remote with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it

If you are testing the remote while programming it, you may be
too far away from the device or at a wrong angle. There must be
an unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on
the device. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at the
device you’re trying to control.
3. Wait until the remote’s indicator
comes on and stays on. Then release
both keys.
If you want to exit the Menu Mode yourself, press the
corresponding device key on the remote (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC,
DVD•VCR, DVR•AUX). The indicator turns off.

• Modifying or tampering with the remote’s internal devices can
cause malfunction and invalidate its warranty.
To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must
program the individual corresponding device keys to control
each part of the combo unit. Once programmed successfully, the
TV key controls the TV functions, and the DVD•VCR key controls
the VCR or DVD functions.

4. Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each
number key on the keypad in the following order: 1-9, then

number of the code. As you find each number of the code,
write it down for future reference.
Changing A Key’s Device Type
•
Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is
preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers,
cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD•VCR for DVD players or
VCRs, and DVR•AUX for DVRs. To program these keys to control a
different kind of device, you have to reassign them first.
NO: Press POWER again. The
remote tests the next code for
your device.
Problem: The remote doesn’t perform commands properly.
CH and VOL keys have dual
functions: they can act as
navigation keys in menu
systems as well as channel
and volume controllers
outside the menus.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
•
Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing
the corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR,

codes begin with the number 2; all DVDs, the number 3; and
all satellite receivers, cable boxes and DTV converters, the
number 5.

NOTES
•
There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be
able to control some of your device features (for example, only
turns a device on and off). To confirm that the device key is
programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality,
test the device. Attempt to control a variety of the device’s
functions with the remote. If some of the features of your
devices don’t work, try programming the remote with a different
code in the list using the Direct Code Entry Method, until you
find the code that allows the remote to control the majority of
your device’s functions. Different codes can provide different
levels of functionality.
2. While holding down the DVD•VCR key, press and release
Note: If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval
process, the remote will not respond. If you do not press
a valid Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR,
DVR•AUX, INFO, CLEAR), Code Retrieval times out after 15
seconds. The indicator blinks four times, and then turns off.
Throughout the programming of each key, keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are programming
the remote to control.
