Code Search Methods

Manual Code Search

1. Manually turn on the component

you want the remote to operate.

2. Press and hold the

CODE SEARCH

key until the indicator light
illuminates. Then release the

CODE SEARCH

key.

3. Press and release the component key

that corresponds to the component
you want the remote to operate (

TV

,

VCR

or

SAT•CBL•DTC

).

The indicator light blinks once
and then remains lit.

Note:

For DVD or AUX, Press

DVD•AUX

, then the component key

corresponding to the component to be
stored under the

AUX

key. For DVD,

press

DVD•AUX

, then the

VCR

key.

For an auxiliary component, press

DVD•AUX

, then the corresponding

component key (

TV

,

VCR

,

SAT

CBL•DTC

).

4. Aim the remote at the component and

press the

ON•OFF

key continuously

until the component turns off.

Important:

Because there are so many

codes, you may have to press the

ON•OFF

key many times—possibly

up to 200 times.

5. When the component turns off, press

the

ENTER

key to store the code.

6. Use Code Retrieval on the next

page to identify the code for your
component for future reference.

If your component’s brand isn’t listed in the Code List or
you have tried all of the codes for your brand and the remote
does not operate your component, use one of the Code Search
methods below—Manual Code Search or Auto Code Search.
Both Code Search methods search all of the codes because
your component’s code may be listed under another brand
in the code list.

Note:

The Code Search method may take a long time because

the remote searches all of the codes in its memory for the
code which operates your component. Therefore, if your
brand is listed in the Code List, use the Direct Entry method
described on pages 5-8.

Auto Code Search

1. Manually turn on the component

you want the remote to operate.

2. Press and hold the

CODE SEARCH

key until the indicator light
illuminates. Then release the

CODE

SEARCH

key.

3. Press and release the component key

that corresponds to the component
you want the remote to operate (

TV

,

VCR

, or

SAT•CBL•DTC

).The

indicator light blinks once and then
remains lit.
