The Learning feature

EN

The Learning feature completes the programming procedure described on page 4, as it enables you to record the functionality of a specific button from the original remote control to one of the TV’s remote control buttons.

Notes:

-Before using the Learning feature, make sure this TV’s remote control is programmed to control other appliances you have connected to the TV. Programming the remote control erases all learned commands for that appliance mode.

-You cannot record a learned function to the following buttons on the TV’s remote control: TV,

VCR, DVD, AUX, SAT, AMP, EXIT, and LIGHT.

-The remote control functions are recorded (learned) by sending infrared (IR) signals: this operation should be carried out in a dimly lit room to avoid interference. Make sure the TV’s remote and the original remote are no more than 5 cm apart, with the Infrared (IR) transmitter

of the original remote facing the IR receiver on the top of the TV’s remote.

-The learned buttons are mode specific—if you add a button function from your DVD player’s remote control, you must press the DVD button first before the learned function will work (in TV mode, the button where you’ve stored the learned function will continue to work as it always has).

-Certain remote controls do not support the use of the Learning function.
