Helpful Hints: Unsuccessful Code

If the component does not operate with the Remote Control, repeat
the procedure using another code. (Some brands have multiple
codes).
If an incorrect code is entered, or if the procedure takes longer than

Component Codes

The Universal Remo te Control i s capable of operating many component brands after ent ering a c ode. Som e components
may not operate because t he codes are not available due to limited memory. The Univ ersal Remote Control does not

AND

CT-36HX42)

Programming The Remote

The Universal Remote Control ca n be programmed to operate many manufacturers’ co mponents, using the component
function buttons for VCR, DVD, CABLE or DBS. Follow the procedures for programming your Remote Control with or
without a code for the component.

Default Modes For Remote Control

Device Operates Default

TV TV (Panasonic Only) Panasonic TV Codes
VCR VCR (Preset) Panasonic VCR Codes
DBS DBS (Preset) Panasonic DBS Codes
CABLE CABLE (Preset) Panasonic DBS Codes

POWER

Helpful Hints: Unsuccessful Code

If the component does not operate with the Remote Control, repeat
the procedure using another code. (Some brands have multiple
codes).
If an incorrect code is entered, or if the procedure takes longer than
30 seconds, the programming will fail.

Programming Without A Code

This procedure searches all codes and is called the “sequence method.”

• Confirm that the external component is plugged in and on.

• Turn the component off.

• Press and together, for at least 5 seconds.

ACTION
