Step 2: Program your remote
To use this universal remote with your home entertainment
system, first you need to program it to control your devices.
There are four ways you can program the universal remote to
operate your devices:
•
The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the
codes for the device you’re trying to control. It’s the easiest
method, but it can sometimes take longer than some of the
other programming methods.
Did your device turn off?

NOTES
Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep
the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are
currently programming the remote to control.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you
need to program each key separately. Each key will control
that part of the combo device.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the
device key is programmed with the correct code for
maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try
a different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum
Functionality” section below for more information.
Step 1: Install your batteries
If the original remote control that came with your device has
separate ON and OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key),
the Auto Code Search might not work with that device. Try
the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual.
Your universal remote requires two AAA alkaline batteries (not
included).
To install the batteries:
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto
Code Search, press the CLEAR key.
During the Auto Code Search, the remote ignores
keypresses that aren’t part of the search.
1. Remove the battery
compartment cover.
Note: To program for a DVD player, you must first press and
hold the DVD key. While you’re holding the DVD key, press
the number 3 key. Then release both keys.
The search times out after two minutes (the LED blinks four
times and turns off, and the last programmed code under
that device key is retained).
2. Insert the batteries, matching
the (+) and (–) marks inside the
battery compartment.
The indicator light blinks four times and turns off when the
remote has gone through all the codes. The remote exits
the Auto Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned off yet,
try a different search method.
1. Manually turn on the device you
want to control.
3. Push the battery cover back into
place.
Battery Precautions:
2. Press and hold the device key you want to program. While
you’re holding down the device key, use your other hand
to press and hold the remote’s POWER key at the same
time.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or
rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
• Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly
and recycle or dispose of them in accordance with Local
and National Regulations.
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try
a different code.
2. Repeat the Auto Code Search Method from the beginning.
When your device turns off, do not stop searching.
Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SLOW
key every 5 seconds until the unit turns back on.
Battery Saver
3. Once the unit turns back on, press the SKIP BACK key on
the remote every 2 seconds until your device turns off
again. When your device turns off again, press the OK key.
Your universal remote control saves battery power by
automatically turning off if any key is pressed for more than
60 seconds. This saves your battery life should your remote
get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such as
between sofa cushions.
3. Wait until the remote’s indicator
LED comes on and stays on.
Then release both keys.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control
a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has
been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions,
programming is complete. If the code stored does not give
maximum functionality, try another code.
3. Once the unit turns back on, you have found another code

Volume Punch-Through
Volume Punch-through allows the VOL and MUTE keys,
when pressed in SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR or VCR modes,
to “punch through” to either TV or AUDIO, whichever was
accessed last. Volume Punch-Through occurs automatically
and allows you to control the volume without exiting the
current mode. (If either AUX key has been programmed with a
TV or AUDIO code, volume can punch through to these devices
as well.)
CLEAR exits remote
programming; it also
performs the same functions
as on your original remotes.
Keep pressing SKIP FWD every 2
seconds until your device turns off.
When it does, press OK.
TIP: Because there are so many codes, you may have to press
the SKIP FWD key many times—possibly hundreds of times.
Arrow keys act as navigation
keys in device guides and
menu systems.
NOTES
Note: Volume Punch-Through does not occur in cases where
the component code has its own volume/mute controls, such
as some satellite receivers.
The INPUT and — (dash) key
has three functions: (1) it
toggles through all the video
or audio sources connected
to your TV or audio device;
(2) when the remote is in
VCR mode, this button
toggles between VCR and
the TV input; (3) when you’re
entering digital channel
Throughout the programming of each key, keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are programming
the remote to control.
Advanced Punch-Through
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device
key is programmed with the correct code for maximum
functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different
code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality”
section below for more information.
Volume Punch-Through, as described above, occurs
automatically. If you want to specify whether Volume
Punch-Through is directed to the TV or AUDIO while in
SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 modes, follow
the steps below.
During the Manual Code Search, the remote ignores

2. While holding down the device key, press and hold the
VOL up key. The indicator light turns off.
IMPORTANT
3. After holding down both keys for 3 seconds, the indicator
light turns on and stays on. Release both keys.
Because this remote controls more than one device, you
must first “tell” the remote which device you wish to
operate. That means, if you wish to operate your TV, you
must first press the TV key to put the remote in the TV
Mode. The remote stays in that device mode until you press
a different device key. For example, if your remote is in TV
Mode and you want to operate the DVD player, you must
press the DVD key to change device modes.
4. Press and release the device key you want the Volume
Punch-Through to be directed to from the selected mode
(TV, AUDIO or AUX key). The indicator light flashes, then
turns off.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some features of your devices don’t work, go to the next
step to try a different code.
Note: The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed
with a TV or AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed,
the LED flashes four times, then turns off.
2. Repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method from
the beginning. When the device turns off for the first time,
don’t press the OK key, which would store the same code.
Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SKIP
FWD key repeatedly until the unit turns back on.
Important: Once you have programmed any device with a
specified Volume Punch-Through, the Volume Punch-Through
for all other devices defaults to AUDIO. If you do not want
other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default to
AUDIO, you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.
Problem: The device’s menu does not appear on the TV screen.
Code Retrieval
Troubleshooting
•
Make sure you have connected the device to your TV properly and
selected the correct input. (See your devices’ Owner’s Manuals for
proper connection procedures.)
Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices,
you may want to record the codes for future reference. If you
used the Direct Code Entry method, this is easy. Just find
the codes you entered and make a note of them in the boxes
below. If you used one of the Code Search methods to program
your remote or if you used the Direct Entry method but don’t
remember the code, you will need to retrieve each device’s
five-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and writing it down
will save you time if you ever need to program the remote
again. If the codes are recorded, you can use the Direct Entry
method to reprogram your remote to control your devices,
which is quick and easy.
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
