7.Press the blank POWER button to turn the device back on.

8.Try some other buttons to make sure they work. Sometimes, the blank POWER button works when other buttons don’t.

CHECKING THE DEVICE CODES

You can find out what device code you’ve set for each remote control mode.

1.Press and hold the mode button for the device you want the remote to control, for about three seconds. When all the other mode buttons light up, let go of the mode button - that mode button should now be flashing.

For example, hold the TV mode button for a TV until all of the other mode buttons light. When you let go, the TV mode light will flash.

2.Press the POUND (#) button twice. The mode button flashes the number for each digit of the device code, with a pause between the groups of flashes. A quick flash is for zero. For example, if the code is 570, the mode button flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, and flashes once quickly.

For AUX mode, the first group of flashes tells you what the AUX mode controls. A quick flash (zero) before the three-digit code is for a TV; one regular flash is for a VCR or DVD player; and two flashes is for a tuner or amplifier. For example, if the TV code is 570, the AUX mode button flashes once quickly, pauses, flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, and flashes once quickly.

SWITCHING BETWEEN TV AND DEVICE VOLUME CONTROL

When you set up the remote to control a TV, the MUTE and VOLUME buttons control the TV volume. However, if you want to use the AUX mode to control a tuner or amplifier and the device has a volume setting, you can set up the remote to control the device’s volume instead of the TV volume.
