1. Press and hold the 

CODE SEARCH

key until the indicator light illuminates.
Then release the 

CODE SEARCH 

key.

2. Press and release the component

key that matches the component’s
code you are retrieving (

TV

VCR•DVD

,

or 

DBS•CABLE

). The indicator light

blinks once and then remains lit.

3. Press and release the 

CODE SEARCH

key. The indicator light turns off.

4. Starting with 0 on the keypad, press

the number keys in order (0-9) until
the indicator light blinks.

5. The number that causes the indicator

light to blink is the first digit of 
your code.

6. Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved

all three numbers of the code.

7. Refer to the code box to write down 

the code for your component within
the Direct Entry Section (pages 5-7)
for the component just programmed.

If you used one of the Code Search methods to program
your remote, follow the steps below to find out which code
is compatible with your component. Finding the actual code
and writing it down will save you time if you ever need to
program the remote again (e.g., if programming is lost when
you change the batteries).

4. Aim the remote at the component 

and press the 

ON•OFF

key once.

The remote automatically sends every
code for the specified component
one at a time, with a 3 second delay
between each code. Keep the remote
aimed at the component throughout
the process.

5. As soon as the component turns off,

you must press the 

ENTER

key

immediately so the remote stores the
correct code. If you don’t press 

ENTER

within 3 seconds, the remote will send
the next code in the list, and you will
have to start over from step 2.

6. Use Code Retrieval to identify the code

for your component for future reference.
