Programming Your Remote Control

You can program the DIRECTV remote control to operate your TV power, volume and mute, addi- tional equipment such as a DVD, VCR, stereo, or second TV or DIRECTV Receiver.

1)Press MENU to display the Quick Menu.

2)Highlight Settings and press SELECT.

3)Highlight Setup and press SELECT.

4)Press SELECT on Remote in the left menu.

5)Follow the onscreen instructions to program your remote for your TV or additional equipment (AV1 and AV2).

Once your remote is programmed to work with your TV, the VOL and MUTE key control the TV regardless of the slide switch position. If you would like to change the VOL and MUTE to work with another component, you can. Simply set up your remote to work with the component, and then move the slide switch to the position you would like to lock the VOL and MUTE keys to. Point the remote away from your DIRECTV Receiver and press and hold MUTE and SELECT until the light near the slide switch blinks twice (about 5 seconds). Enter 9-9-3. The light will blink twice, indicating the VOL and MUTE are now locked to the chosen component, no matter what position the slide switch is in.
