Your universal remote can operate a TV, cable or satellite, VCR, DVD player, and external audio (AUX) device.

Set up your universal remote in one of three ways:

Brand Code Setup: Directly enter the device code from the Code List. Try each code until you find one that works for your device.

Auto Code Search: Your universal remote automatically goes through all the device codes. (This method can take up to 60 minutes to search all the codes for the 4 devices.)

Manual Code Search: Manually goes through each code for your device one by one at the touch of the G button.

n Note: Keepyourremotepointedatthedevicethatyouwanttoprogramthroughoutsetup.

Brand Code Setup1. Power on the device that you want to control.
