The remote control has a code memory feature and comes with a code list to help users program it to work with their TV.

Product Usage Instructions

1. Inserting the batteries: Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control and insert two AAA batteries, making sure to match the polarity (+/-) correctly. The remote control will display a low battery warning when the batteries are weak and need to be replaced.

3. Code entry: Press and hold the device button (TV) on the remote control and press the “SETUP” button until the device button blinks twice. Then, enter the three-digit code from the code list. If you have entered an invalid device code, the status LED flashes twice. To exit the device code entry, press the mute button [MUTE].
4. Code search: If you do not have a device code for your TV or if the code entry does not work, use the code search function. To do this, press and hold the mute button [MUTE] and [POWER] simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds until the status LED lights up. Then, press the [CH+ or CH-] button to start the code search. With each button press, the remote control sends a new code to your TV. If your TV switches to a different program, also test the found device code using the [POWER], [VOL+], [VOL-], [MENU] buttons, and the number keys 0-9. If the functions work, press the [MUTE] button to save the device code and end the search.
