Press the • RECORD and the AUTO SOUND buttons simultaneously and

HELPFUL HINT

This method can take several minutes to per- form.

Don’t let the device scan up more than five channels. If you do the remote may pass up the right code and another search cycle will have to be repeated.

If no channel change happens within two minutes, repeat steps 1-4. Should a channel change still not occur, the remote will not work the desired device.

NOTE: Setting up the remote is for use with external accessory devices only and not for use with other television brands.
