Turn to the list of “Manufacturer’s Codes” on page 65, and find the three-digit code number for the manufacturer of your equipment. (If more than one code number is listed, use the number listed first.)

Press repeatedly until the DVD/VCR, SAT/CABLE or i.LINK indicator lights up.

Press for five seconds until the indicator of the selected input flashes.

While the desired indicator is flashing, enter the three-digit manufacturer’s code number.

Press .

✍You must do step 5 within 10 seconds of step 4, or you must redo steps 4 through 5.

6 To check if the code number works, aim the TV’s remote control at the

equipment and press that corresponds with that equipment. If it responds, you are done. If not, try using another code listed for that manufacturer.

✍If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one by one until you come to the correct code for your equipment.

✍If you enter a new code number, the code number you previously entered at that setting is erased.

✍In some cases, you may not be able to program your remote control to operate other equipment. In such cases, use the equipment’s own remote control.

✍Dead batteries or removing the batteries may cause the programmable codes to be lost and revert back to factory settings. Reprogramming the codes may be necessary.
