Your device will turn off when the correct Set-Up Code number has been selected.
If the device does not turn off, press in the next Set-Up Code number from the
listing. Continue to select Set-Up Code numbers until your device turns off, before
you proceed to Step 5.
Note: If you have tried all of the three digit Set-Up Code numbers listed
for your device and it still did not turn off, please proceed to the Auto
Search Method on page (10) to program your remote control.
5Once your device turns off, press the Device Button selected in Step 3 once again
to store the Set-Up Code number. PASS will flash in the LCD.
6Test the remote control for your device. Try the POWER, CHANNEL Up and
Down, VOLUME Up and Down buttons, etc. If any of the buttons do not perform
as they should, please repeat the set-up from Step 1 using the next Set-Up Code
number for your device.
Note: Some audio/video devices have separate buttons for POWER ON
and POWER OFF. To operate these devices on the remote, press the
corresponding device button to turn the equipment ON and press the
POWER button to turn the equipment OFF.

used to "relocate" functions from one mode to another.

Memory Button, the MUTE button is used to enter POWER
commands during Memory Button programming. See Example:
Memory Button Programming, for illustration.
Each Memory Button can send out up to ten commands with one button push. Any
function from any mode (except Channel Up, Channel Down and MUTE) can be
programmed into a Memory Button. The Memory Buttons can be programmed
