If the component doesn’t respond, it’s possible that:

•Your component manufacturer has several preset codes for the same component. Press BACK to go back and select another number (if there is one) from the list.

•Your component doesn't have a standby mode (and therefore won’t switch on/off).

•There is something blocking the path between the remote control and the remote sensor of the component you’re trying to control.

•The preset code is unavailable for your component. Press CANCEL to exit, then try using the method described in Programming signals from other remote controls below to program the component into the remote control. If your component type is different from the set of controls associated with the input source (for example you want to control an LD with the DVD/LD button), it is useful to choose INSTALL in the next step to change the screen to control the component you’ve connected.
