Turn on device that you want to set
Aim remote at the device
Press the device button for the item you wish to program and the LED will blink once
Press and hold the set button unti the LED lights up solid red
Using the number keys, enter the 4 digit code from the list. After you have entered the 4th digit, the LED will turn off, indicating that the code for the device was recognized.
If the device powers off, test the functions for the other buttons (except OK button). If all the functions work, press the OK button to store the code. If the indicator light remains solid red after blinking 3 times the code is incompatable. You then need to restart back on step 2.
Make a note of the correct 4 digit code for future use.
COde search setting is an alternative method to programming your device without using the code list
Turn on the device you want to set
Aim the remote control at the device
Press the decive button for the item you want to program
Press and hold the SET button until the LED light up solid red
Press the MUTE/SEARCH button. The LED will shut off first then light up solid red.
When the device turns off, press the OK button to store this code.
This is for the Jumbo Universal remote.If yours is different just let me;) know.
