Using the Remote Control

Graphics contained within this publication are for representation only.

Important

You must continue pressing the component button while
you enter the code.

Let’s say you have a Zenith VCR. To program the universal
remote to operate the VCR, you would:

Press and hold the VCR1 button while you enter the first
code listed for Zenith in the VCR Codes column.

Release the VCR1 button. Press ON•OFF to see if the VCR
responds. If it doesn’t, follow the same steps, but enter the
second code for Zenith VCRs instead of the first.

Note

Some of the remote’s buttons might operate differently for
other components, especially when you’re using another
component’s menu system.

Using Direct Entry

1. Turn on the component to be programmed.

2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the component on the code list in this section.

3. Point the remote at the component.

4. Press and hold the component button you want to program on the remote.

5. Enter the 4-digit code from the remote control code list on the following pages. If the

indicator flashes, you have either entered an invalid code or the button isn’t programmable.

6. Release the component button, and then press ON•OFF to see if the component responds to

the command. If it doesn’t, try pressing the component button and then ON•OFF again.

If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your brand, until the
component responds to the remote commands.

If you try all the codes for your component brand and none work, try the automatic code
search method. If automatic code search doesn’t find the code, the remote is not compatible
with your component.

How to Use the Remote After You’ve Programmed It

Because this universal remote can control several different components (TV, DVD, VCR, satellite
receiver, etc.) it uses operational modes triggered by the component buttons. For example, if you
want the remote to control the TV, you would press the TV button to put the remote into TV
mode before you could control the TV.

1. Press the appropriate component button (DVD, TV, VCR1, VCR2, SAT•CABLE, AUX) to set the

remote to control the component.

2. Press ON•OFF to turn the component ON or OFF.

3. Use the remote buttons that apply to that component.

Notes:

The remote may not be compatible with all brands and models of components. It also may not
operate all functions of the remote that came with your component.

If you keep pressing buttons and nothing happens, the remote is probably in the wrong mode. You
must press the component button that matches the component you want to operate (i.e., if you want
to operate the VCR, press VCR1 on the remote control to put the remote in VCR mode.)
