Once the code has been stored (see Manual Code Search and Entry Method page 7), use the remote to attempt to control a variety of the component's functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the component's functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, you will want to try another code. 2. In that case, repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method from step 1. When the component turns off for the first time, do not press the STOP key, which would store the code. Instead, wait 4 seconds, with the unit now off, continue to press the ON•OFF key repeatedly until the unit turns back on. Once the unit turns back on, you have found another code that operates the component. Press the STOP key. 3. Test the functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the component's functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the component's functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, you will want to try another code. 4. Repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method from step 1. Each time a code turns the component on or off, you have found a code that operates the remote and needs to be tested for maximum functionality. Continue through the code lists, cycling through the codes you have already tried, until you find one that offers maximum functionality. Auto Code Search and Entry The Auto Code Search and Entry Method enables the remote to automatically search through all the codes in the Code Lists for the one that operates your component. Note: The Manual and Auto Code Search methods may take a long time because the remote searches through all of the codes in its memory for the code that operates your component. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, first try the Brand Code Search or the Direct Code Entry methods described on pages 4 and 6. GO BACK ! TIP: To exit without saving at any point in the Auto Code Search, press and release the GO BACK key. 1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to control (TV, VCR, DVD, satellite receiver or cable box). Note: If you press an invalid key during the Auto Code Search, the remote does not respond. If you do not press a valid Auto Code Search key (TV, VCR•DVD, SAT•CBL, ON•OFF, GO BACK, PLAY, REVERSE, FORWARD, STOP), the search times out after two minutes. When the search times out, the illuminated ON•OFF key blinks four times and turns off. The last programmed code under that component key is retained. 2. If you are programming the remote to control your TV, satellite receiver or cable box go directly to step 4. 3. To program the remote to control a VCR or DVD. The VCR•DVD key can control only one component, either your VCR or your DVD. To program your remote to control either your DVD or your VCR, you must first put the remote in the proper programming mode. Follow these directions before proceeding to step 4. 9
