Programming The Remote
The Universal Remote Control can be programmed to operate many manufacturers’ components, using the component
function buttons for VCR, DVD, CABLE or DBS. Follow the procedures for programming your Remote Control with or
without a code for the component.
Determine the manufacturer of the component and look in the table for the code. 
Programming With a Code
Procedure
• Confirm that the external component is plugged in and operating.
• Turn the component off.
• Press  and   together, for at least 5 seconds.
• Press appropriate component button on the Remote Control VCR, DVD, CABLE or DBS.
• Enter the 3-digit component code using the Remote Control numeric keypad (0 ~ 9 buttons).
• Press the Remote Control   to test the component. If the procedure was successful, the component will turn on.
Programming Without a Code
This procedure searches all codes and is called the “sequence method.”
• Confirm that the external component is plugged in and on.
• Turn the component off.
• Press  and   together, for at least 5 seconds.
• Press appropriate component button on the Remote Control.
• Press    to move forward to the next code. Press     to move backward.
• Press the Remote Control   to test the component. If the procedure was successful, the component will turn on.
Note:Repeat the above steps until the component code is found. It may take many attempts before the correct code
is found.
• After the code is found, press   to store the code.

Helpful Hints:  Unsuccessful Code
If the component does not operate with the Remote Control, repeat
the procedure using another code. (Some brands have multiple
codes).
If an incorrect code is entered, or if the procedure takes longer than
30 seconds, the programming will fail.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION
Component Codes
The Universal Remote Control is capable of operating many component brands after entering a code. Some components
may not operate because the codes are not available due to limited memory. The Universal Remote Control does not
control all features found in each model. 
 
Write the code numbers from tables in this space. This will serve as a reference if you need
to program your Remote Control.
