Code Search Methods

If your component’s brand is not listed in the Code List or you have tried all the codes for your

brand and the remote does not operate your component, use one of the Code Search methods below— Manual Code Search or Auto Code Search. Both Code Search methods search all of the codes since your component’s code may be listed under another brand in the Code List.

Note: The Code Search method may take a long time because the remote searches all of the codes in its memory for the code that operates your component. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Code List, use the Direct Entry method described on pages 5-9.

Manual Code Search

1.Manually turn on the component you want the remote to operate.

2.Press and hold the CODE SEARCH key until the indicator light illuminates. Then release the CODE SEARCH key.

3.Press and release the component key that corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate (TV, VCR, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO). For an auxiliary component, press the AUX key, then the corresponding component key. For CD, press the AUX key, then the DVD key. The indicator light blinks once and then remains lit.

4.Aim the remote at the component. Press the ON•OFF key continuously until the component turns off.

Important: Because there are so many codes, you may have to press the ON•OFF key many times—possibly up to 200 times.

5.When the component turns off, press the ENTER key to store the code.

6.Use the Code Retrieval section on the next page to identify the code for your component for future reference.

1.Turn on the component you want the remote to operate.

2.Press and hold the CODE SEARCH key until the indicator light illuminates. Then release the CODE SEARCH key.

3.Press and release the component key that corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate (TV, VCR, DVD, DBS·SAT, CABLE, AUDIO). For an auxiliary component, press the AUX key, then the corresponding component key. For CD, press the AUX key, then the DVD key. The indicator light blinks once and remains lit.

4.Aim the remote at the component and press the ON•OFF key once. The remote automatically sends every code for the specified component one at a time, with the three-second delay between each code. Keep the remote aimed at the component throughout this process.

5.As soon as the component turns off, you must press the ENTER key immediately so the remote stores the correct code. If you do not press the ENTER key within three seconds, the remote sends the next code in the list, and you will have to start over from step 2.

6.Use Code Retrieval section on the next page to identify the code for your component for future reference.
