Learning Commands The AV receiver's remote controller can learn the commands of other remote controllers. By transmitting, for example, the Play command from your CD player's remote controller, the supplied remote controller can learn it, and then reproduce the exact same command when its  is pressed in CD remote mode. This is useful when you've entered the appropriate remote control code (➔ page 69) but some buttons don't work as expected. RECEIVER REMOTE MODE 1 While holding down REMOTE MODE for the mode in which you want to use the command, press and hold down RECEIVER until the REMOTE MODE button lights (about 3 seconds). 2 On the supplied remote controller, press the button to which you want to assign the new command. 3 Point the remote controllers at each other, within about 4 inches (10 cm) apart, and then press and hold the button whose command you want to acquire until the REMOTE MODE button flashes. If the command is learned successfully, the REMOTE MODE button flashes twice. Note • The following buttons cannot learn new commands: RECEIVER, ALL OFF, MY MOVIE, MY TV, MY MUSIC, REMOTE MODE, MODE, HOME. • The remote controller can learn approximately 70 to 90 commands, although this will be less if commands that use a lot of memory are learned. • Remote controller buttons such as Play, Stop, and Pause are preprogrammed with commands for controlling Onkyo CD players, cassette decks, and DVD players. However, they can learn new commands, and you can restore the preprogrammed commands at any time by resetting the remote controller (➔ page 70). • To overwrite a previously acquire command, repeat this procedure. • Depending on the remote controller that you are using, there may be some buttons that won't work as expected, or even some remotes with which learning is impossible. • Only commands from infrared remote controllers can be acquire. • When the remote controller runs out of batteries, all commands acquired will be lost and will have to be learned all over again. Therefore, do not discard your other remote controllers. ■ Deleting Acquired Commands 1. While holding down REMOTE MODE for the mode from which you want to delete a command, press and hold down TV until the REMOTE MODE button lights (about 3 seconds). 2. Press REMOTE MODE or the button from which you want to delete the commands. The REMOTE MODE button flashes twice. When you press REMOTE MODE, all commands learned in that mode will be deleted.
