This section lists advanced features for your remote. None of these features are required. If you just want to watch TV, see Watching TV on page 22.

How Do I Lock My Volume Keys To a Device?

Note: The default setting is to control volume through your TV all the time.

You can program your VOLUME and MUTE keys to function in one of two ways:

•To control the volume on a single device all the time

•To control the volume on each device, depending on the mode key that you press

Follow these steps to change the way your VOLUME and MUTE keys function.

1.Turn on the appropriate device.

2.Press SETTINGS to access the General Settings on-screen menu, and verify that the Audio: Volume Control setting is set to “Variable.”

3.Press SELECT and the appropriate mode key (AUX, VCR, TV, or CBL) at the same time until the light blinks twice.

4.Using the keypad on the remote, press 9 9 3. The light blinks twice.

5.Do you want the VOLUME and MUTE keys to operate a single device all the time?

•If yes, press the mode key for the device that you want to control the volume.

•If no, press VOL - to control the volume through various devices based on the mode key.

6.Point the remote toward the device and confirm that VOLUME and MUTE function as expected.

Can I Program My Mode Keys to Control Other Devices?

Yes, you can program the TV, VCR, and AUX mode keys on your remote to control other devices. For example, you can program the AUX mode key to control a second VCR device, such as a DVD player.

1.Turn on the device.

2.Press SELECT and CBL at the same time until the light blinks twice.

3.Using the remote control keypad, press 9 9 2. The mode keys blink twice.

want to change. For example, to program the AUX key to operate a second VCR device, press VCR and then AUX.

If you want to reassign a key to its original mode, you must repeat this procedure. Instead of pressing two keys in step 4, press the key that you want to reassign twice:
