Using the Remote Control
The Learning Feature
Before using the learning feature, make sure this TV’s remote control is programmed to control
other components you have connected to the TV. Programming the remote control erases all
learned commands for that component mode.
After you program the TV’s remote control to operate the other component, the TV’s remote
provides most of the operations you need. However, there may be some functions on the
component’s original remote control that your TV’s remote control doesn’t have. For example, your
DVD remote control might have an ANGLE button that enables you to change the angle of the
picture, but your TV remote doesn’t have that button. The learning feature enables you to record
the functionality of a specific button from the original remote control to one of the TV’s remote
control buttons.
Note: All learned functions for a mode can be erased if you program a different component
to that mode.
Adding a Learned Function
There are several things to consider before you begin the learning process:
You can’t record a learned function to the following buttons on the TV’s remote control:
component buttons (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT/CAB, AUX, and AUDIO), the CLEAR button, and the
LIGHT button.
Before adding a Learned Function, you must program this TV’s remote control to operate that
component because programming the remote control erases all learned commands for that
component mode.
Do the learning process in low light areas because too much natural light or fluorescent light
might cause the learning feature to fail because the remote control functions are recorded
(learned) by sending infrared (IR) signals.
The TV’s remote and the original remote should be no more than 2 inches apart.
In order to record (learn) a function from one remote to the other, you must make sure the
Infrared (IR) transmitter of the original remote is facing the IR receiver on the top of the TV’s
remote (see illustration). To accomplish this, you may have to hold a remote in each hand
instead of laying both on the table.
The learned buttons are mode specific—if you add a button function from your DVD player’s
remote control, you must press the DVD button first before the learned function will work (in
TV mode, the button where you’ve stored the learned function will continue to work as it
always has).
