our TV remote can be set to work various
accessory devices (VCRs, cable convert-
ers, and satellite receivers, for example) by
what is called the Search Method.
NOTE: The Search Method works only with
devices equipped with channel-display indica-
tors on the devices themselves or the ability to
show channel numbers on the TV screen. If
the Code-entry Method (shown in the previ-
ous section) did not enable your TV remote to
work your accessory device, then follow the
easy steps listed below. Please read the steps
once before performing them.
1
Turn on the desired device. Press
and hold down the VCR or ACC (for
an accessory device other than a
VCR) mode button on the TV remote.
Then press and hold down the SURF
button as you hold down the desired
mode (VCR or ACC) button.
NOTE: For correct operation, you
must press and hold down the desired
mode (VCR or ACC) button first and
then press and hold down the SURF
button second.
While holding down the SURF and
the desired mode (VCR or ACC)
buttons simultaneously, point the
remote toward the accessory device
and continue holding the buttons down.
2
Watch the Channel Indicator on
your accessory device. Channel num-
bers will scan up when the TV remote
has identified the correct code for your
accessory device. This may take sever-
al minutes.
3
Release the mode (VCR or ACC)
and SURF buttons as soon as chan-
nel numbers start to scan up. The
scanning means that your TV remote
has found the code for your accessory
device.
NOTE:
If no channel change happens
after several minutes, repeat steps 1 and 2.
Then if a channel change still does not
occur, the remote will not work with the
desired accessory device.

The remote’s back light will blink as the remote
moves through its product code list. After the
remote identifies the product code for your
accessory device and you release the remote
buttons, the back light will blink twice.
This process can take several minutes.
Don’t let the accessory device scan up more
than five channels when the correct code is
found—the remote may pass up the right code
and have to repeat the search cycle.
