  • Page 14: Auto-Search Method

    1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 14 Auto-Search Method The Auto-Search Method is a way you can scan through all of the codes in the table to find the right code for your component. Manually or using your old remote, turn on the STEP 1: component you want to program—for example, to program your TV, turn on your TV set.
  • Page 15 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 15 STEP 3: Point the WR7 remote control toward the component and press the UP [ ] arrow (or DOWN [ ] arrow) button once. Each time the UP or DOWN arrow button is pressed, the code will count up (or down) one code number and send a Power OFF signal.
