REMOTE USE WITH ACCESSORY DEVICES - SEARCH METHOD

Your TV remote can be set to work various external devices such as

VCRs, Cable Boxes, Satellite Receivers, DBS, DVD, etc. by what is called the search method of remote control pro- gramming. This programming method can take a long time to preform so we reccomend you use it as a last resort.

Please read all the steps below before beginning.

Press the POWER button on the device your are attempting to program to turn it ON.

If programming a VCR or DVD type product that has a STOP play command, place a VCR Tape or DVD disc into the device. Press the PLAY button on the choosen device.

Place the TV/VCR/ACC Mode Switch in the proper position. TV for all television functions, VCR for pro- gramming Video Cassette Recorders or ACC for all other accessory devices.

Press the VCR • RECORD and the AUTO SOUND buttons simulta- neously and hold them down.

As you continue to hold down the VCR

RECORD and the AUTO SOUND buttons, the remote will run through its programmed code list. It will send out a command for every code it has com- manding the VCR or DVD to STOP play. For Cable Boxes and Satellite Receivers the command will be to

CHANGE CHANNELS.

When the STOP command happens for VCRs or DVD type devices, release the two buttons and the remote should control the device.

For Cable Boxes and Satellite Receivers the channel indicator will change. As soon as the channel changes ONCE,

IMMEDIATELY release the two but- tons. The remote should now control the devices. If the two buttons are held longer than the one channel change, the process will have to be repeated. This method can take up to 12 and a half min- utes to perform.
