7. Press the blank POWER button to turn the device 

back on.

8. Try some other buttons to make sure they work. 

Sometimes, the blank POWER button works when 
other buttons don’t.

You can find out what device code you’ve set for each remote control 
mode.

1. Press and hold the mode button for the device you want the 

remote to control, for about three seconds. When all the other 
mode buttons light up, let go of the mode button - that mode 
button should now be flashing. 
For example, hold the TV mode button for a TV until all of the 
other mode buttons light. When you let go, the TV mode light 
will flash.

2. Press the POUND (#) button twice. The mode button 

flashes the number for each digit of the device code, 
with a pause between the groups of flashes. A quick 
flash is for zero. For example, if the code is 570, the 
mode button flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, 
pauses, and flashes once quickly.

For AUX mode, the first group of flashes tells you what the 
AUX mode controls. A quick flash (zero) before the three-digit 
code is for a TV; one regular flash is for a VCR or DVD player; 
and two flashes is for a tuner or amplifier. For example, if the 
TV code is 570, the AUX mode button flashes once quickly, 
pauses, flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, 
and flashes once quickly.

When you set up the remote to control a TV, the MUTE and VOLUME 
buttons control the TV volume. However, if you want to use the AUX 
mode to control a tuner or amplifier and the device has a volume 
setting, you can set up the remote to control the device’s volume 
instead of the TV volume.
