Programming the Universal Remote control
Your remote control may already operate your TV, VCR or DVD player. If the remote control does not properly operate
your TV, VCR or DVD player, follow the steps below. These instructions guide you through setting the remote control to
operate your TV. For VCR and DVD player, follow the same steps, but press the VCR or DVD button at step 3.
1. Point the remote control at your TV and press the TV button. Then, press the POWER button. If your TV turns on
or off, try the other TV function buttons (see page 16). If the other functions work, the remote is ready to operate
the TV without any more steps. If your TV does not turn on or off, or if the other buttons do not work, go to step 2.
2. Find the brand and code number(s) of your TV on page 15.
3. Press the TV button.
4. Press and hold the number 1 & number 3 buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The LED will blink twice and remain on.
5. Enter the 4-digit code from step 2 within one minute. The LED will blink after each button press. Note: If the 4-digit code is
not entered within one minute, the LED will turn off and the remote control will return to the previously programmed
code.
6. After a valid 4-digit code has been entered, the LED will turn off and blink twice to confirm the new 4-digit code has
been programmed. The LED will then turn off.
7. If an invalid 4-digit code has been entered, the LED will turn off.
8. Press the POWER button. If the remote control operates your TV, you’re finished.
9. If the remote control doesn’t operate your TV and if there is more than 1 code for your TV brand, repeat steps 2-8.
10. For future reference, list the 4 digit code numbers you program into your remote:
TV code: __ __ __ __
VCR code: __ __ __ __
DVD code: __ __ __ __
11. If you cannot find a code that operates your TV, If the remote still does not operate your TV, follow the Automatic
Search steps below.
Automatic Search
To automatically program your remote control to operate your TV, VCR or DVD player, follow the steps below. For a VCR
and DVD player, follow the same steps but substitute that component for the TV.
1. Turn on your TV. Stand close to your TV (within 5 to 10 feet) and point your remote control towards the remote
sensor on your TV. Press the TV button. Press and hold the number 1 and the number 3 buttons simultaneously for 3
seconds. The TV LED will blink twice and remain on.
2. Press the POWER button. The LED will turn off. If the POWER button is not pressed within 1 minute, the remote
will return to the previously programmed code. The automatic search will begin after the POWER button has been
released.
3. Each time a code is transmitted, the LED will blink. This process could take several minutes.
4. When the correct code is found, the TV should turn off. Immediately press the POWER button. The LED will blink twice,
then turn off. If all codes have been tried and the TV has not turned on or off the LED will stay on briefly, then turn off.
Note: To stop the search process at any time, press any button other than the POWER button. The LED will give a long
blink and turn off. There is no guarantee that the remote control will work with your TV, VCR or DVD player.
