Tips:
• The functions described here pertain to the theoretically
ideal circumstance that the button structure of the respec-
tive original remote control is identical to this universal
remote control. This only occurs, however, in rare cases. If,
therefore, not all of the original remote control's functions
can be reproduced it is not due to a diciency in the Uni-
versal remote control.
• All the brand names used in these instructions or in the
accompanying code list are trademarks of the correspond-
ing companies.

Code Setup (Programming the remote control)
3 Programming methods are available for the remote control:
Programming by brand code search, by automatic code
search and by direct code input (manual).
First you should use the brand code search since this method is
the fastest way of programming if the manufacturer of your de-
vice is itemized in the code list. As second is recommended the
direct code input followed by the automatic code search.
Programming by brand code search
With this method you select the brand and code direct via
the LCD display q.
Observe the following operational references to programme
the remote control:
1. Press the device button efor the device that you want to
programme the remote control.
2. Hold down the S button rfor a little longer than 3 sec-
onds. Carry out entries in the menu quickly because after
approx. 15 seconds without an entry the menu will be
ended.
3. In the LCD display q"CODE SETUP" appears. Press the
OK button l. "ENTER CODE" now appears in the LCD
display q. With the  buttons tselect "BRAND
CODE" and conrm with the OK button l.
4. Now appears the alphabetical rst brand name from the
list of pre-programmed devices.
5. With the 34 buttons tselect the various brand names.
6. To make access easier you can skip directly to specic let-
ters of the alphabet with the number buttons o:
2 => A 3 => D 4 => G 5 => J
6 => M 7 => P 8 => T 9 => W
Example With button number 5 the display skips to the
letter "J". The rst brand is "JVC"*. If, for example, you
own a "Kenwood"* brand device, continue leang with
the 4button t until this brand name appears. (* All
brand names used here are trademarks of the corre-
sponding manufacturer.)
7. The majority of manufacturers use several dierent codes
for the remote control. You must now ascertain which of
the available codes is best suited to your device. On the
right underneath the brand name the relevent code will
be shown in the LCD display q.
8. Point the remote control to the relevent device and press
the function buttons to test the code (except 34t,
OK l, EXIT y, or the number buttons o).

- 12 -
9. If most of the buttons function press the OK button lto
save the setting. In the LCD display q"OK" appears.
Subsequently the menu will close automatically.
10. If, however, none or only a few of the buttons function
select with the or button tthe next code and test
again as described in step 8.
11. With the EXIT button yyou will move one level upwards
in the menu.
Repeat these operational steps for all devices that you would
like to control with the remote control.
Programming by manual code input
In this mode the remote control can be programmed by direct
input of a code number. You can obtain the necessary code
number from the enclosed manufacturers directory with device
code list. In the event that the new code is invalid the last valid
programmed code will be restored.
1. Press the device button efor the device that you want to
programme the remote control.
2. Hold down the S button rfor a little longer than 3 sec-
onds.
3. In the LCD display q"CODE SETUP" appears. Press the
OK button l."ENTER CODE" now appears in the LCD
display q.To access this function press the OK button l.
4. In the LCD display qappears the presently used code for
the selected device. Now the rst digit of the code blinks
and waits for your code input. Enter the new four digit
code via the number buttons o.
5. If the entered CODE is valid the code will be saved. In
the LCD display q "OK" appears briey. Subsequently
the menu will close automatically. In the event of failure
the LCD display q shows briey "ERROR" and waits for a
new code entry. Then you repeat step 4.
6. With the EXIT button yyou will move one level upwards
in the menu.
Programming by automatic code search
This process can take several minutes per device since all
codes for the selected device have to be gone through.
Therefore this method should only be used when the device
cannot be programmed via brand code search or direct
code input or if your device is not listed at all in the manufac-
turers directory with device code list.
Follow the steps listed below to carry out programming by
means of the automatic code search.

- 13 -
1. Press the device button efor the device that is to be con-
trolled (i.e. VCR).
2. Switch the device that is to be controlled with the remote
control on. With VCR/DVD/CD devices please insert a
tape and/or disc.
3. Hold down the S button rfor a little longer than 3 sec-
onds.
4. In the LCD display q"CODE SETUP" appears. Press the
OK button l. "ENTER CODE" now appears in the LCD
display q. Press the or button tuntil "SEARCH
CODE" is shown in the LCD display q. Point the remote
control to the device and then press the OK button lto
access the mode "automatic code search".
5. The search begins. Thereby the device sends, one after
the other, the code numbers in ascending order. The infra-
red symbol 2# indicates this.
6. When the device reacts by switching o press immedi-
ately the OK button lto save the relevent code. The LCD
display q shows briey "OK".
7. Check to see if the majority of your device's functions can
now be controlled with the remote contol. If yes you have
most probably found the correct code. In the event that a
few functions are not working you can start the automatic
code search again beginning with step 1.
Note:
However, with a renewed code search, point the URC
first to the target device after the previously found inad-
equate code has run its course.
8. However if the device does not react any more you prob-
ably did not press the OK button lquick enough in step
6. Then press repeatedly the EXIT button yto exit the
menu and return to the standard display.
9. Now hold down the device button eof the device for
which you have just sought the relevent code. Below on
the right in the LCD display qwill thereby be shown the
relevent code. Make a note of this number.
10. Then proceed as described in the preceding chapter
"Programming by manual code entry" and check to see
if the code with the next lowest number combination will
function.
Tips:
1. When code search is activated all buttons except OK l
and EXIT yare ignored.
2. If the automatic search has reached the end of the code
list it stops there. The display then returns to "SEARCH
CODE".

Learn Setup
The Universal remote control (URC) can learn and save but-
ton signals of an original remote control. If the URC does not
work after applying the programming methods already de-
scribed or cannot carry out all commands please attempt to
teach the URC with the help of the original remote control.
• Use new batteries for the URC and the original remote
control.
• Maintain a distance of at least one metre from other light
sources. The light sources could disrupt the infrared trans-
mission.
• Place the URC and the original remote control at a dis-
tance of 20 to 50 mm from each other on an even surface
so that the infrared diodes 2) are facing each other.
