Using your remote to control audio/video products

Applies to:

Follow the steps below to control other devices using the 3·2·1 system remote. You'll find a list of device codes in the back of your owner's guide. More than one code may work with your brand of product. If you notice a lack of response or limited functionality after setting up the remote, try a different code for that brand.

Note: During programming, if the wrong key is pressed or an invalid device code is entered, the remote status light flashes rapidly eight times. Wait seven seconds for the remote to clear and begin programming again.

On the remote, press and hold the TV button until the remote LED lights up(about five seconds).

Using the PRESETS (1–9) buttons, enter the TV's four-digit device code. The remote LED will turn off briefly as each key is pressed.

Check that the LED turns off after you enter the code. If the LED blinks, the code is invalid. Try another code.
