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 indi-
cators on the devices themselves or the abili-
ty to show channel numbers on the TV
screen. If the Code-entry Method (shown in
the previous 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
several 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.
Using the Remote Control
• 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.
• Your TV remote may locate the
accessory device’s code quickly or
within 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.
