GETTING STARTED BATTERIES

  • If while using the remote, the button’s red indicator light flashes 3 times, this indicates the batteries need to be replaced. Please replace the batteries as soon as possible when this indication occurs.

Code Saver

  • When changing the batteries of your remote, please do so quickly. You have up to 20 minutes to change the batteries in your remote without losing the programmed codes.

If the POWER OFF  button’s red indicator light flashes and remains on after entering four digits, that means an invalid code was entered. In that case, check the list again and re-enter the code.
    NOTE: Test the remote with the device to make sure all the buttons work as expected. If some of the buttons/ features don’t work, try a different code in the list. Repeat this process for each device you wish to control.

PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE (AUTO CODE SEARCH)

It’s recommended to program your remote by using the Direct Code Entry method, however if with that method you were not able to find a code that is compatible with your device, you may try the Auto Code Search method below

  2. Press and hold the PROGRAM button until the button lights up red. The POWER OFF  button’s red indicator light remains on.

If during the Auto Code Search you have either accidentally or deliberately released the OK button, you may repeat steps 1 through 5 above to resume the code search where it left off. After the Auto Code Search has exhausted all available codes for the selected category, the remote’s button’s red indicator light blinks three times and turns off.
