Replace the batteries with two (2) new AA

 

alkaline batteries (see page 7).

PROBLEM:

Mode key blinks when you press a key, but home

Make sure you are aiming the remote control at

 

your home entertainment device and that you

 

are within 15 feet of the device you are trying

 

to control.

PROBLEM:

Try all listed codes for the device brand being set

 

up. Make sure all devices can be operated with

 

an infrared remote control.

Use the VCR codes for your brand. Some combo

 

units may require both a TV code and a VCR

 

code for full operation (see page 9).

SOLUTION:

If original remote control required pressing

 

ENTER to change channels, press ENTER on the

working code.

SOLUTION:

Try the “Search Method” again after clearing out

enter 9 - 9 - 2. Then press and release the mode

 

key to be cleared twice.

SOLUTION:

For power on, these products require program-

 

ming TV codes on the remote control. For Sony,

 

use TV code 0000 and VCR code 0032. For Sharp,

 

use TV code 0093 and VCR code 0048.
