Entering Remote Control Codes

You’ll need to enter a code for each component that you want to control.

The remote indicator lights.

Note

Remote control codes cannot be entered for RECEIVER and the multi zone button.

Only TV remote control codes can be entered for TV.

Except for RECEIVER, TV, and the multi zone button, remote control codes from any category can be assigned for the REMOTE MODE buttons. However, these buttons also work as input selector buttons (page 22), so choose a REMOTE MODE button that corresponds with the input to which you connect your component. For example, if you connect your CD player to the CD input, choose TV/CD when entering its remote control code.

3 Within 30 seconds, use the number buttons to enter the 5-digit remote control code.

The remote indicator flashes twice.

If the remote control code is not entered successfully, the remote indicator will flash once slowly.

Note

Though the provided remote control codes are correct at the time of release, they are subject to change.

Remapping Colored Buttons

You can change the configuration of colored buttons, with which REMOTE MODE buttons are preset.

1 While holding down the REMOTE MODE button that you want to program, press and hold down A (Red) until the remote indicator lights (about 3 seconds).

You can only change colored buttons for components whose codes belong to categories of the Remote Control Codes list (BD/DVD player, TV, cable set-top box, etc).

2 Within 30 seconds, press the colored buttons in the order that you want to reassign them.

The button presses are assigned to each button from left to right. The remote indicator flashes twice, indicating that the sequence has been successfully assigned. If the sequence is not successfully assigned, the remote indicator will flash once slowly.

Tip

To reset the REMOTE MODE buttons to their default settings, see “Resetting the REMOTE MODE Buttons” (page 70).

Note

If any other button than the colored buttons is pressed, the operation will be cancelled.

This operation cannot be done while the AV receiver is in Receiver mode or when ZONE 2 is active.
