is programmed with the correct
code for maximum functionality,
test the component. Attempt to
control a variety of the
component's functions with the
remote. If some of the features of
your components do not work, try
programming the remote with a
different code in the list until you
find the code that allows the
remote to control the majority of
your component's functions.
Different codes can provide
different levels of functionality.

future reference in the box provided
in the Code Retrieval section of this
manual (See page 12).

Manual Code Search and Entry

If your component's brand isn't listed in the Code Lists, or if
you have tried all of the codes for your brand and the remote
does not operate your component, try one of the Code Search
methods below—Manual Code Search or Auto Code Search.
Both Code Search methods cycle through all of the codes in the
Code Lists in the event that your component's code is listed
under another brand.
The Manual and Auto Code Search methods may take a long
time because the remote searches through all of the codes in its
memory for the code that operates your component. Therefore,
if your brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists,
first try the Brand Code Search or the Direct Code Entry
methods described on pages 4 and 6.
