Step 1: Install your batteries
Your universal remote requires three AAA alkaline batteries (not included).
To install the batteries:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert the batteries, matching the (+) and (–) marks inside
the battery compartment.
3. Push 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
Your universal remote control saves battery power by automatically turning off if any key is pressed for more than 60 seconds. This saves your battery life should your remote get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such as between sofa cushions.
Step 2: Program your remote
To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, first you need to program it to control your devices. There are four ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices:
• TheAuto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. It’s the easiest method, but it can sometimes take longer than some of the other programming methods.
• TheBrand Code Search searches through the codes for select brands of devices. It’s not as easy as the auto code search, but it can be faster.
• TheDirect Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method. Note: Direct Code Entry is usually the best method to use for audio devices.
• TheManual Code Search lets you manually go through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control.
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 components can cause malfunction and invalidate its warranty.

Auto Code Search
The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. When you find the one that operates your device, you can stop the search and store that code.
TIPS: To program the AUX key, you must rst assign it to a
device type. See the Assigning the AUX Key section.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers, digital TV converters, or cable boxes, DVD•VCR for DVD players, and AUDIO for audio receivers. To program the DVD•VCR key to control a PVR or VCR, see the Reassigning the
DVD•VCRKeytoControlaVCR section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Auto Code Search might not work with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto Code Search, press the EXIT key.
1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
2. Press and hold the device key you want to program (the
POWER key illuminates). While you’re holding down the device key, use your other hand to press and hold the remote’s POWER key at the same time (the POWER key turns off).
3. Wait until the POWER key comes on and stays on. Then
release both keys.
4. Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device you
want to control. Press SLOW on the remote and wait 5 seconds. The remote is testing a batch of 10 codes on your device.
Did your device turn off? YES: Go to step 5. NO: Press SLOW again. The remote tests the next batch of
10 codes.
Keep pressing SLOW every 5 seconds until your device turns
off.
5. When your device turns off, press the SKIP BACK key on the
remote and wait at least 2 seconds. The remote tries the last of the previous ten codes.
Did your device turn on? YES: Press the OK key. You’re done! You’ve programmed
this device key.
NO: Press SKIP BACK again. The remote tests the next code
in the batch.
Keep pressing SKIP BACK every 2 seconds until your device
turns back on. When it does, press OK.
Note: If you accidentally press the SKIP BACK key after your device turns on, press the SKIP FWD key. Then, wait two seconds to see if your device turns off again.
NOTES: Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you
are currently programming the remote to control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality” section below for more information.
During the Auto Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part of the search.
The search times out after two minutes (the POWER key blinks four times and the last programmed code under that device key is retained).
The POWER key blinks four times when the remote has gone through all the codes. The remote exits the Auto Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned off yet, try a different search
method.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try a different code.
2. Repeat the Auto Code Search Method from the beginning. When your device turns off, do not stop searching. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SLOW key every 5 seconds until the unit turns back on.
3. Once the unit turns back on, press the SKIP BACK key on the remote every 2 seconds until your device turns off again. When your device turns off again, press the OK key.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, try another code.
Brand Code Search
The Brand Code Search goes through only the codes for one of the select brands listed in the accompanying code list. If your brand of device is listed, this search can be very quick and easy.
IMPORTANT: The Brand Code Search works for TVs, VCRs, DVD players, satellite receivers, cable boxes and audio devices. The Brand Code Search does not work for programming this remote to control DVRs and digital TV converter boxes. Use a different programming method for these kinds of devices.
TIPS: To program the AUX key, you must rst assign it to a device type. See the Assigning the AUX Key section.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers, digital TV converters, or cable boxes, DVD•VCR for DVD players, and AUDIO for audio receivers. To program the DVD•VCR key to control a PVR or VCR, see the Reassigning the
DVD•VCRKeytoControlaVCR section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Brand Code Search might not work with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Brand Code Search, press the EXIT key.
1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
2. Find your device’s brand in the Brand Code list section of
the accompanying code list. Circle the number for your brand and keep the list handy.

4. Wait until the POWER key comes on and stays on. Then
release both keys.
5. Look at the numbers you circled for your device’s brand
code. Press those numbers on the remote keypad.
Note: For single-digit brand codes, press the 0 key rst (for example, 0-5 for 5).
6. Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device
you want to control. Press SKIP FWD on the remote and wait 2 seconds. The remote is testing a single code for your device’s brand.
Did your device turn off?
YES: Press the OK key to store the code. You’re done!
You’ve programmed this device key.
NO: Press SKIP FWD again. The remote tests the next code
for your brand.
Keep pressing SKIP FWD every 2 seconds until your device
turns off. When it does, press OK.
NOTES: Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you
are currently programming the remote to control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality” section below for more information.
During the Brand Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part of the search.
The search times out after two minutes (the POWER key blinks four times and the last programmed code under that device key is retained).
The POWER key blinks four times when the remote has gone through all the codes. The remote exits the Brand Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned off yet, try a different
search method.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try a different code.
2. Repeat the Brand Code Search from the beginning. When the device turns off for the first time, don’t press the OK key, which would store the same code. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SKIP FWD key repeatedly until the unit turns back on.
3. Once the unit turns back on, you have found another code that operates the device. Press the OK key.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, try another code.
Direct Code Entry
Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method.
TIPS: To program the AUX key, you must rst assign it to a device type. See the Assigning the AUX Key section.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers, digital TV converters, or cable boxes, DVD•VCR for DVD players, and AUDIO for audio receivers. To program the DVD•VCR key to control a PVR or VCR, see the Reassigning the
DVD•VCRKeytoControlaVCR section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
2. Find the Code List that came with the remote. Locate the
section for the type of device you’re trying to program, and find your brand in that section. Circle the codes for your brand and keep them handy.
3. Press and hold the device key you want to program (the
POWER key comes on).
While you’re holding down the device key, use your other
hand enter the first five-digit code for your brand in the code list (the POWER key goes off after the first digit).
4. When you’ve finished entering the five-digit code, keep
holding down the device key and look at the POWER key.
Is the POWER key illuminated? YES: You’re done! You’ve programmed this device key. NO, it blinked four times and turned off: You have
either entered a code number that is not in the code lists or missed a step in the code entry procedure. Try step 3 again.
NOTES
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different code
in the list.
Remember to enter the code for future reference in the box provided in the Code Retrieval section of this manual.
If your brand isn’t listed in the code list, use one of the Code Search methods to program the remote control. (Refer to the Auto and Manual Code Search methods.)
If you release the device key any time during the Direct Code Entry procedure, the POWER key blinks four times and the process is exited. The last programmed code under the device
key is retained.

Manual Code Search
The Manual Code Search takes you one-by-one through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. When you find the one that operates your device, you stop the search and store that code.
TIPS: The Manual Code Search method may take a long time
because the remote searches through all of the codes in its memory one-by-one. If your brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, rst try the Brand Code Search or the Direct
Code Entry method.
To program the AUX key, you must rst assign it to a device
type. See the Assigning the AUX Key section.

Tour of the Remote
In most cases, the keys on this remote perform the same functions as the keys on your original remotes once you’ve programmed this remote to operate your components. Many keys on this remote have other functions as well.
Illuminated POWER key serves as an indicator light to provide feedback.
Device keys (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR, AUDIO, AUX) put the remote in the right mode to control your device.
BACKLIGHTING key turns backlighting on/off.
GUIDE and MENU put the remote in menu/guide mode; they also access the same features as the keys on your original remotes.
EXIT exits remote programming; it also performs the same functions as on your original remotes.
Arrow keys act as navigation keys in device guides and menu systems.
OK key selects your menu choices.
The MACRO key, along with the number keys 1–8, let you store and execute multi-step actions (macros) in a single keypress
The INPUT and — (dash) key has three functions: (1) it toggles through all the video or audio sources connected to your TV or audio device; (2) when the remote is in VCR mode, this button toggles between VCR and the TV input; (3) when you’re entering digital channel numbers directly, this button lets you separate the main channel number from the sub­channel number (such as 59.1).
Actual model may vary from illustration
IMPORTANT
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must rst “tell” the remote which device you wish to operate. That means, if you wish to operate your TV, you must rst press the
TV key to put the remote in the TV Mode. The remote stays
in that device mode until you press a different device key. For example, if your remote is in TV Mode and you want to operate the DVD player, you must press the DVD•VCR key to
change device modes.
Backlighting
Backlight illumination helps you see the remote control keys better in the dark. You can turn backlight illumination on or off by pressing the BACKLIGHTING key. Backlighting stays on as long as keys are being pressed and turns off four seconds after the last keypress. Once the backlight time has timed out, any keypress will reactivate it. If the backlight illumination is on, and you press the backlight key, the backlight turns off.
