Battery Saver
Your remote automatically turns off if the buttons are
depressed more than 30 seconds. This will save your
batteries should your remote get stuck in a place where
the buttons remain depressed (e.g., between the sofa
cushions).
Code Saver
You will have up to 10 minutes to change the batteries
in your remote without losing codes you have
programmed. However, do not press any buttons until
batteries are installed in the remote. If buttons are
pressed without batteries in the remote, all codes will be
lost.
Power-On Default
The remote powers on in TV mode.
Code Setup
The CODE SEARCH button is used to setup the
remote. You can either setup the remote using the code
for your brand of product, from the code tables (on
separate sheet), or you can search through the library
of codes until you find a code that works for your
product.
Please refer to “Programming with Code Search” on page
8 for more information on using the code search feature
to learn how to search through the library of codes for
your products.
NOTE: You can store any kind of code under any mode
(except TV). I.E. you can store a VCR code under the
CBL button, or a DVD code under the VCR button, etc.
However, you can only store TV codes under the TV
button.
