GETTING STARTED (BATTERIES)
Thank you for choosing the Beam Universal Remote Control. This remote
control can operate a wide range of electronic devices, works across
most brands and models, and comes pre-programmed to operate
many Samsung TVs (see the Programming Your Remote sections if
your device is not compatible). Your remote can control up to 6 devices
and is remarkably easy to set up. To get started, please install four AAA
alkaline batteries (not included) as shown below.
Installing the Batteries
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Insert the batteries as shown.
3. Snap the battery cover back
into place.
Battery Precautions
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard
(carbon-zinc) or rechargeable
(nickel-cadmium) batteries.
• Always remove old, weak or worn-
out batteries promptly and recycle
or dispose of them in accordance
with local and national regulations.
Battery Saver
To conserve battery power, the
remote will automatically turn off
if any button is pressed for more
than 60 seconds (except during
programming). This feature is helpful
in the event that the remote is stuck
in a location where the buttons
remain depressed, such as between
sofa cushions.

stores and then download it.
2. Make sure the Bluetooth on your smartphone is turned on, then open
the app.
3. Follow the app prompts, to connect with, and program your remote.

Before beginning, please make sure that the device you want to control
is powered on and follow these three simple steps.
NOTE: The Beam remote comes pre-programmed to operate many
Samsung TVs.
1. Press and hold the PROGRAM button until the POWER button
lights up red.
The POWER button’s red indicator light remains on.
NOTE: Press PROGRAM to exit at any time.

3. Enter the 4-digit code from the included list for the category and
brand of your device.
The POWER button’s red indicator light shuts off, and you will hear a
long beep if a valid code was entered.
If the POWER button’s red indicator light flashes and remains on, and
you hear 3 beeps after entering four digits, that means an invalid code
was entered. In that case, check the list again and re-enter the code.
NOTE: Test the remote with the device to make sure all the buttons work
as expected. If some of the buttons/ features don’t work, try a different code
in the list. Repeat this process for each device you wish to control.
