Care and Maintenance

• Keep the remote dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the remote only in normal temperature

environments.

• Handle the remote gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.
• Keep the remote away from dust and dirt.
• Wipe the remote with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it

looking new.

• Modifying or tampering with the remote’s internal devices can

cause malfunction and invalidate its warranty.

Problem: The remote does not operate your device.

Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the

corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX).

This tells the remote which device to operate.

Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make

sure you’re aiming the remote at the device’s IR sensor.

Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.

Replace the batteries with two new AA batteries, if necessary

(see the Battery Installation section).

Problem: The remote can’t be programmed to operate your

device.

If you are testing the remote while programming it, you may be

too far away from the device or at a wrong angle. There must be

an unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on

the device. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at

the device you’re trying to control.

If you’re using the Direct Entry programming method to enter

the codes for your brand and the unit is still not functioning

properly, try the auto, brand, or manual search method.

To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must

program the individual corresponding device keys to control

each part of the combo unit. Once programmed successfully, the

TV key controls the TV functions, and the VCR•AUX or DVD key

controls the VCR or DVD functions.

Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.

Problem: The remote doesn’t perform commands properly.

Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the

corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX).

This tells the remote which device to operate.

Make sure device is ready (for example, the DVD player has a

disc loaded).

You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.

If you’re trying to enter a channel number directly, try pressing

the OK key after entering the channel number as this is a

requirement of certain models and brands.

There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be

able to control some of your device features (for example, only

turns a device on and off). To confirm that the device key is

programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality,

test the device. Attempt to control a variety of the device’s

functions with the remote. If some of the features of your

devices don’t work, try programming the remote with a different

code in the list using the Direct Code Entry Method, until you

find the code that allows the remote to control the majority of

your device’s functions. Different codes can provide different

levels of functionality.

Problem: The ON•OFF key does not light when you press a key.

You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is

in.

Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the

corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX).

This tells the remote which device to operate.

Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.

Replace the batteries with two new AA batteries, if necessary

(see the Battery Installation section).

Problem: The remote will not change channels on device.

Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the

corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX).

This tells the remote which device to operate.

Press the OK key after you enter a channel number.

Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make

sure to aim the remote at the IR sensor on the device.

Problem: The device’s menu does not appear on the TV screen.

Make sure you have connected the device to your TV properly and

selected the correct input. (See your devices’ Owner’s Manuals for

proper connection procedures.)

Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the

corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX).

This tells the remote which device to operate.

Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. You may need to use

your original remote control to access menu functions for some

devices.
