Notes:
• Every time you replace the batteries, you
must reprogram the remote control.
• Some newer VCRs are capable of working
on either of two remote codes.These VCRs
have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”
If your VCR has this kind of switch and
does not respond to any of the codes for
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other
position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram
the remote control.

Searching and sampling the code of a device (8500)
Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode indicator will blink
three times. The remote control will begin to cycle through the
available codes again. If no key is pressed within 10 seconds while
programming, the remote control will exit the program mode and
return to the previous code.
1. Refer to the Device code table on pages 21–22 to find
the code for your device.
If more than one number is listed, try each one separately

(CABLE/SAT, VCR, DVD, AUDIO1, AUDIO2) lights up.
3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the
Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code of

one long blink.
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER
to test the code.
If the device turns on, you have entered the correct code.
If the device does not respond to the remote control, you
may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3 and 4
using another code.
5. Press MODE to select the TV mode to control the TV.
If you do not know the device code for a particular target unit, you can
cycle the remote control through the available codes for that device
mode and sample the functions to find the code that properly operates
the target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided they are
applicable to that mode, are 0, 1, 2, 3, POWER, VOL
