Learning functions from other Remote Controls

To eliminate the amount of remote controls you need, this remote control has a learning feature. Once set up as explained below, it can be used in place of your other remote controls. It is recommended that you make a note of what each button has been taught (you can use the table provided with the remote control).

Before you start and for accurate learning, please read below instructions:

• Choose the button (a-g) you want to learn. The buttons which can learn a new function, have a blue dot. See fig. 3 to find out the possible buttons.

• Do not move the remote units during the learning procedure.

• Be sure to keep holding down the learning button until your commander reacts as described.

• Use fresh batteries in both remote units.

• Avoid learning in places subjects to direct sunlight or a strong fluorescent light.

• Noise may interfere during the learning procedure.

• The remote control detector area may differ depending on each remote unit. If learning does not work, try changing the positions of the two remote controls.

• It is possible that some specific remote control signals may not be learned.

• If you do not perform the learning steps within 20 seconds at any point during the process, the learning mode ends.
