5 Programming the Remote Control
There are three ways you can program your remote control:
* Quick Set-Up Method
* The Pre-Programm rogrammed 3-Digit Code Method
* The Auto-Search Method
The Quick Set-Up Method is a unique new feature that enables the fastest and easiest set-up by using
one-digit codes for up to 10 major brands for each component.
The Pre-Programmed Code Method allows you to setup all the buttons at once by entering 3-digit code
numbers that correspond to a particular Component's manufacturer/brand, so it's the fastest and
easiest of the two methods. (Code Tables are on the backside of this Instruction Sheet.) The Auto-
Search Method scans through all the codes in the remote control, one at a time.
IMPORTANT SETUP NOTES:
This pertains to all programming steps. When you are in setup mode in each component, a component
LED will light up for 30 seconds. If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the LED light will turn off
and exit setup mode and you will need to start over.
