En

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.

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.
