the house apart trying tofind if
someone has stuffed the remote

your TV remote can save you all
that looking by automatically
signaling its location to you.
Here's how it works:
1_1 Press the POWER button on<"the set to turn the TV ON.
Note: Normally you can press any

specific remote to be signaled when the
TV is turned ON.*
To set a Locator Address Code:
._ With TV turned ON, press the 'IV

reentered.
When setting the Locator Code if any
button, other than the number buttons,
are pressed the remote will return to its
normal operation mode.
*For owners who live in an apartment
