Resetting the Remote Memory

As you add components to your home-theater sys- tem, occasionally you may wish to totally repro- gram the remote control without the confusion of any commands, macros or ”Punch-Through“ pro- gramming that you may have done. To do this, it is possible to reset the remote to the original factory defaults and command codes by following these steps. Note, however, that once the remote is reset, all commands or codes that you have entered will be erased and will need to be re- entered:

1.Press any of the Input Selector buttons 4 and the ”O“ button Gat the same time until the Program Indicator 2begins to flash amber.

2.Press the ”3“ button Gthree times.

3.The red LED under the Input Selector 4will go out and the Program Indicator 2will stop flashing and turn green.

4.The Program Indicator 2will remain green until the remote is reset. Note that this may take a while, depending on how many commands are in the memory and need to be erased.

5.When the Program Indicator 2goes out, the remote has been reset to the factory settings.
