Congratulations! Your Universal Remote Control (URC) is a state-of-the-art
device which integrates many different infra-red remote controls to deliver
instant A/V action to your fingertips.

Before operating the remote, please read thoroughly (1) the inside of the
coversheet and (2) this manual. Then store them for future reference.

Alkaline batteries are recommended. The batteries required are 2 x AAA 1.5V
or equivelent.
1. Remove the battery cover on the back of your URC.
2. Insert the batteries observing the "+/-" marks inside the battery

compartment.

3. Push the battery cover back in place.

NOTE:
The memory inside the remote will retain its settings for short periods of time
with the batteries removed (When changing batteries for instance).

By entering Device Code

You may setup the URC by following the code entering instructions.

1. Referring to the DEVICE CODE LIST, look up the 4-digit Device Code

which corresponds to the brand of your A/V equipment. If there is more
than one Device Code listed under your brand, start from the first code.

2. Press the desired Device Mode Key (e.g. TV).
3. Hold down "CH +" and "VOL -" on the URC simultaneously for 2 seconds

until the indicator light under the power key lights up.

4. Use the number keys "0" - "9" to enter your 4-digit Device Code. The

indicator should go out after the 4th digit is entered.

Turn on your device (e.g. TV), then try the function keys on the URC. If your
device (e.g. TV) responds to your activated function correctly, you have
entered the right Device Code. Otherwise, repeat the above steps with the
next available Device Codes until your device (e.g. TV) responds to your
activated function, and most keys work correctly.

* Simply repeat the above procedures to enter the Device Codes for your

DVD and AUX devices. (Remember to press the correct Device Mode Key
in step 2 above)
