Setting the Code
Follow the steps 1 and 2 below for each component you plan to use
with the Commander.
Step 1: Entering the Code Number
1 See the supplied "Component code
numbers", and find the four-digit code
number for the desired component.
If more than one code number is listed, use
the number that's listed first.

component that you want to
set up.
The SET indicator lights up.
4 Press the Number buttons to enter the four-digit
component code number.
5 Press ENTER. The SET indicator turns off. If the SET
indicator flashes five times before lighting up, it
means that the setup is incomplete. Confirm the
component code number and start over from Step 4.
If the code setting is not finished properly
If you do not input anything into the Commander within 20 seconds
between each step, or if you press SET while setting the component
code, the setup procedure will be canceled.
Start over from Step 2.
Step 2: Checking if the Code Number Works

2 Aim the Remote Commander at the component and press a button
to check if that button works.

Notes on Using the Remote Commander
Basically, use this Commander in the same way as the Commanders
supplied with your components.
• Using this Commander will not increase the functions of your
components. The functions of the Commander are limited to the
functions of the components themselves. For example, if your TV
does not have a MUTING function, MUTING on this Commander
will not function with your TV.
• Some functions of the component may not work with this
Commander.
• If your cable box can control volume, be sure to set its volume
switch to a medium position. If the volume on the cable box is
turned down completely, you will not be able to adjust your TV's
volume with the Commander.
