Warranty Information 23
Important note for new owners.
Thank you for purchasing a Sole
Control remote.
Right now, your
remote will not work any device.
YOU will need to program the
remote once you install the
batteries.
TO program the remote, you will
need to find the three-digit code
number for your device and brand
in the Code Book (manual
#2). There
is probably more than one code
listed, but one of them should
operate your component.
It is important to know that the
first code listed isn’t necessarily
the one that works your
component. Try all the
manufacturer’s codes for the one
that best operates your component.
Keep entering the codes in the
remote following the instructions
(found on the next
few pages).
The Sole control should work
exactly as your original remote did.
Enjov!
If you have any problems please Call
a customer service representative
at the Sole Control
