Operating Accessory Devices with the TV Remote

Once you have programmed your TV remote, refer to page 27 to see how the remote func- tions with accessory devices.

Before the remote will operate an accessory device, you must select the correct mode: CBL (cable box), VCR, DVD, SAT (satellite), or AMP (amplifier).

1 Press the Select button to cycle through the accessory modes. When the mode you want lights up, stop pressing the button. After a few seconds, the light will begin blinking. The blinking means that the remote is in the acces- sory mode you have selected.

NOTE: The remote is in accessory mode as long as the light keeps blink- ing. If you do not use the remote for 60 seconds the light will switch off, and the TV will go back to TV mode. The 60-second timer restarts each time you use the remote in an accessory mode.

2 Point the front of the remote toward the front of the accessory device, then press the button to perform the desired function.
