Note: If the 3-digit code number you just entered 

is correct, the component will turn off.  If it did 

not turn off, continue entering code numbers 

listed for that brand until the component turns off.

Step 4: 

After  you’ve  entered  the  correct  code 

number and the component has turned off, press 

the [POWER] button to turn the component 

back on. Now it is time to test the VOLUME and 

MUTE buttons for the TV (or PLAY and STOP 

buttons for VCR and DVD) to make sure they 

all work. If any of the functions do not work 

as they should, repeat from STEP 3 using the 

next 3-digit code number listed for that brand 

until you find the best component code. 

STEP 5:

  Once you have found the correct 

3-digit code, save it by pressing the same 

[COMPONENT] button one more time. The 

component LED light will blink twice to confirm 

that the code was successfully stored.

Now, program the rest of your components 

by repeating STEPS 1-5.

Note: If the Pre-Programmed Method did not 

work, or if the Code Tables do not list your 

component brand, use the Auto-Search Method 

as explained in Section B.

B. Auto-Search Method

STEP 1

: Turn on the component you want to 

program (TV, VCR, DVD or AUX).

STEP 2:

 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV, 

VCR, DVD or AUX) to be programmed and 

[OK/SEL] button simultaneously for 3 seconds. 

The component LED light will turn on for 30 

seconds, indicating the unit is ready to be 

programmed.

STEP 3:

 Point the remote toward the component 

and press the [CH

5

] or [CH

] or [CH

6

] button as soon as the 

component turns off.

STEP 4:

 Test functions. (Same as for 3-Digit 

Code Programming Method - Section A). If any 

of the functions do not work as they should, 

repeat from STEP 3 using [CH

5

]or [CH

6

buttons to find the correct code.

STEP 5:

 Save the code. (Same as for 3-Digit 

Code Programming Method - Section A).

Now, repeat the Auto-Search Method for those 

components you could not program earlier with 

the  Pre-Programmed  Method.  If  you  can’t  find 

the  right  code  using  the  Auto-Search  Method, 

try the Learning Method in Section C.

C. Learning Method

STEP 1:

 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV, 

VCR, DVD or AUX) to be programmed and 

the [ASPECT] buttons simultaneously for 3 

seconds until the component LED light turns on.

STEP 2:

 Line up the CLIKR™-5

 

to the other 

remote, head-to-head, 1 or 2 inches apart.

STEP 3:

 Press any button on the CLIKR™-5

 

that you want to teach a command to. For 

example, if you want to teach the [MUTE]

 Press and hold the [MUTE] button 

on the other remote until the CLIKR™-5

 

component LED light blinks twice.

Note:

 The LED will blink 5 times if there was an 

error in the learning process. If so, repeat STEPS 

3 and 4. Continue learning other buttons by 

repeating STEPS 3 and 4.

STEP 5:

 Once you have completed teaching 

CLIKR™-5  all desired commands for that 

component, save the learned commands by 

pressing the [COMPONENT] and [ASPECT] 

buttons simultaneously until the component 

LED blinks 3 times. Now test all the buttons to 

make sure they learned correctly.

D. Erasing a Single

Learning Command

STEP 1:

 Press the [COMPONENT] and 

[ASPECT] buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds 

until the component LED light turns on.

STEP 2:

 Press and hold the button you want to 

erase for 3 seconds. The component LED will 

blink twice to confirm the erasure.

STEP 3: 

To exit, press and hold both the 

[COMPONENT] and [ASPECT] buttons 

simultaneously until the Component LED blinks 

3 times.

E. Erasing all Learned

Commands from One Component

STEP 1:

 Press the [COMPONENT] and 

[ASPECT] buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds 

until the component LED light turns on.

STEP 2:

 Press and hold both the [COMPONENT] 

button you want to erase and the [PAUSE] 

button for 5 seconds. The component LED will 

blink twice to confirm the erasure.

STEP 3:

 To exit, press and hold both the 

[COMPONENT] and [ASPECT] buttons 

simultaneously until the component LED blinks 

3 times.

F. Finding a Component Button’s

Setup Code Number

If you used either the Auto-Search or Learning 

Methods to program a component, you may not 

know what the correct code number is. Here is a 

way for you to identify the code number, so you 

can record it for future reference.

STEP 1:

 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV, 

VCR, DVD or AUX) you want to verify and the 

[OK/SEL] button simultaneously for 3 seconds. 

The Component LED light will turn on for 30 

seconds.

STEP 2:

 Press the [INFO] button and count 

the number of times the Component LED light 

blinks. This number indicates the first digit of 

the code, followed by the second and third, each 

separated by a 1- second pause when the LED 

will turn off.

Note:  10 blinks represents the number zero. 

Example: One blink (pause), eight blinks (pause) 

and three blinks indicates code number 183.

G. AUX Function:

Programming a Fifth Component

You can take advantage of the AUX function to 

program a 5th component, such as a second TV, 

VCR, DVD or Audio component.

STEP 1:

want to set up. Point the remote control toward 

the Component and enter the 3-digit code 

number assigned to your brand.

Note: If the 3-digit code number you just entered 

is the correct number, the component will turn 

off.  If it did not turn off, continue entering code 

numbers listed for that brand until the component 

turns off. 

STEP 4:

  Test functions. (Same as for Pre-

Programmed 3-Digit Code Method - Section 

A). If any of the functions do not work as they 

should, you need to find a new code.

STEP 5:

 Once you have found the correct 3-digit 

code, save it by pressing the [AUX] button one 

more time. The Component LED light will blink 

twice to confirm the code was stored. Now when 

you press the AUX button, all the buttons will 

work with that fifth component.

H. Programming the

4. Programming

the Remote Control

There are two ways you can program your 

CLIKR™-5

 

remote:

• The Pre-Programmed

  3-Digit Code Method

• The Auto-Search Method

• The Learning Method

The Pre-Programmed Code Method allows 

you to set up 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. The Learning 

Method allows you to transfer functions from 

other remotes, one button at a time.

Important Setup Note:

This pertains to all programming steps. When you 

are in setup mode, a component LED will light 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.

A. Pre-Programmed

3-Digit Code Method

Step 1:

 Turn on the component you want to 

program (TV, VCR, DVD or AUX).

Step 2: 

Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV, 

VCR, DVD or AUX) to be programmed and 

[OK/SEL] button simultaneously for 3 seconds. 

The component LED light will turn on for 

30 seconds, indicating the unit is ready to be 

programmed.

Step 3: 

Point the remote control toward the 

component and enter the 3-digit code number 

assigned to your brand.
