Using the TV 53
Programming the remote control for component control
Programming the component code
1 Turn on the TV. Turn on the cable or satellite set-top-box, VCR, or DVD and, if applicable, insert
media (a cassette or a disc).
NOTE: Please read steps 2 through 4 completely before proceeding. We recommend highlighting or
writing down the codes and device you wish to program before performing step 2.
2 On the remote control, press CBL/SAT button or DVD/VCR button once. Press and hold SETUP until
the red light blinks twice, then release SETUP.
3 Use the Manufacturer’s Codes (see listing that follows) to locate the type of component by brand
name and then enter the first four-digit code for your component. If performed correctly, the red
light blinks twice.
NOTE: If the red light did not blink twice, then repeat steps 2 and 3, entering the code again.
4 Aim the remote control at the component and press PWR once. The component should turn off. If it
does not respond, repeat steps 2 and 3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that
works. If it still does not work, try searching for the code; see “Searching for the component code”
on page 53.
NOTE: If the device does not have a power button, press PLAY.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each component you want to control with the remote control.
Searching for the component code
If your device does not respond to the remote control after trying all codes listed for your brand, or if
your brand is not listed at all, try searching for your code:
1 On the remote control, press CBL/SAT button or DVD/VCR button once.
2 Press and hold SETUP until the red light blinks twice, then release SETUP.
3 Press the number buttons 9, 9,1. The red light blinks twice.
4 Aim the remote control at the set-top-box or the VCR or DVD and slowly alternate between pressing
PWR and the component (CBL/SAT or DVD/VCR) button. Stop when the component turns off.
NOTE: In the search mode, the remote control sends codes from its library to the selected device,
starting with the most popular code first.
5 Press SETUP once to lock in the code.
