ENGLISH 2. Program the remote To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, first you need to program it to control your devices. There are four ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices: • The Brand Code Search searches through the codes for select brands of devices. If your brand is listed in the Brand Code section of the code list, try this method first. • The Direct Code Entry searches through the codes for select brands of devices. Note: Direct Code Entry is usually the best method to use for audio devices. • The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you're trying to control. • The Manual Code Search lets you manually go through all the codes for the device you're trying to control. Brand Code Search The Brand Code Search goes through only the codes for one of the select brands listed in the accompanying code list. If your brand of device is listed, this search can be very quick and easy. IMPORTANT: The Brand Code Search works for TVs, VCRs, DVD players, satellite receivers, cable boxes, and audio devices. The Brand Code Search does not work for programming this remote to control DVRs, digital TV converter boxes, or streaming media players. Use a different programming method for these kinds of devices. TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device-the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•STREAM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters, cable boxes, or streaming media players, DVD•VCR for DVD players, and AUDIO•AUX for audio receivers. To program the AUDIO•AUX or DVD•VCR key for a different type of device, see the Reassigning the AUDIO•AUX or DVD•VCR Key section. To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/ VCRs, you need to program each key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device. If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Brand Code Search might not work with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual. To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Brand Code Search, press the EXIT•BACK key. 3
