How to Program the Remote

There are two ways to program the remote: automatic code search and direct entry .
Using Automatic Code Search
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate (VCR, etc.)
2. Press and hold the component button on the remote control that corresponds to the component you
want the remote to operate (VCR1, etc.). While you hold down the component button, press and hold
ON•OFF (when the light on the remote turns on, release both buttons).
3. Press PLAY (the light on the remote, located below the ON•OFF button, starts flashing).
The remote is searching the first set of component codes (there are 20 sets of codes). If the component
you want to operate doesn't turn off automatically after 5 seconds, press PLA Y again (the light starts
flashing again as the remote searches through the next set of codes).
Continue pressing PLA Y until the component turns off.
Note: If the component doesn't turn off after you've pressed the PLA
programmed.
4. Press REVERSE, wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns back on.
5. To finish, press and hold the ST OP button until the light on the remote turns off.
Using Direct Entry
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate.
2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the component on the code list on page 1 1.
3. Press and hold the component button that corresponds to the component you want the remote to
operate (VCR1, etc.)
4. Enter the code from the code list.
5. Release the component button.
6. Press ON•OFF to see if the component responds to the remote commands. If it doesn't, try pressing the
component button and then ON•OFF again.
7. If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your brand until the component
responds to the remote commands.
