REMOTE CONTROL
8
You can identify the universal remote control by the
inscription Multibrand/Universal.
The universal remote control must be programmed to use the
codes for your appliances of different brands. This is done by
keying in a 4-digit code or by scanning the codes until the
correct one is found. We recommend to using the 4-digit
code. This method is faster and more reliable. The code
scanning method should only be used if you cannot find the
code for one of your appliances. The code table can be found
at the end of the booklet.
Important!
The buttons of the remote control must be used for
programming, not the buttons of the receiver or other
appliances.
Programming with the 4-digit code
1 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be
controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.
2 Key in the 4-digit code for the appliance (codetable at the
end of the booklet).
Notes: – If more than 4 digits are entered, the remote
control will recognize only the ones keyed in first.
– If you do not key in a code within 30 seconds the
remote control will switch off the programming
function without changing the code.
– To program a new appliance, simply overwrite the
old code by entering a new one.
Scanning the codetable
1 Switch on the appliance which should be controlled.
2 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be
controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.
3 Press and release 2 again.
yThe remote control sends the codes for channel up or
standby (depending on the selected source) for one
brand after the other.
4 As soon as the appliance reacts – switches to the next
channel or to standby – press 2 to confirm the code.
yThe identified code will be used.
If the set does not react within 2 minutes, the code for this
appliance is not stored in the remote control. The code of
the remote control will remain unchanged.
Note: When taking out the batteries of the remote control for
more than 1 minute the codes must be reprogrammed.
Once you have found and tested the codes for your various
appliances, you may want to write them down here.
