Code Search
If your product does not respond after you have tried all
the codes for your brand, or if your brand is not listed,
try searching for your code by following these steps.
1. Manually turn on the device (
TV , VCR , etc.) to be
controlled.
2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button until the
red indicator stays on, then release the CODE
SEARCH button.
3. Press and quickly release the desired mode button
( TV , VCR , etc.). The red indicator blinks off once.
4. Press the CHANNEL UP button repeatedly (up to 300
times) until the device to be controlled changes
channel. The red indicator blinks off with each
button press. If you accidentally overshoot the
code required, press the
CHANNEL DOWN button
to backtrack through the library until the device
changes channel. Pressing
CHANNEL UP changes
direction to forward again.
5. Press and release MUTE to install the code.
Most users will store VCR codes under the VCR button,
Satellite codes under SAT , etc. If (for example) you want
to store a VCR code under SAT , first follow the procedure
for Direct Code Entry (page 10) and press SAT in step 2
of Direct Code Entry, then enter ANY VCR code in step 3
of Direct Code Entry. Then follow the steps above for
Code Search (or Brand Search, page 12).
Note: If the device does not have a CHANNEL UP
button, use PLAY ( VCR only) or POWER instead. Code
Search starts from the currently stored three digit
number under that mode.
