6. Program the remote control.
- Turn on the TV and set-top from their front panels. Can you tune the TV to channel 3 or 4? Can you change channels with the remote? If yes, skip to step 7 below. If no, then proceed with step 2 below.
- Locate the Manufacturer's Code for your type of TV and brand name. Use the first four-digit code listed for your TV. Write down this 4-digit code and have it ready.
- On the remote control, press the mode key labeled TV; it will blink once.
- Press and hold the SETUP button on the remote control until the TV mode key blinks twice, then release SETUP.
- Enter the 4-digit code into the remote control. If performed correctly, the TV mode key will blink twice.
- Tune your TV set to channel 3 or 4.
NOTE: If the TV key emits a long blink, the entry is invalid. Repeat steps 2 and 3 and try entering the same code again. Aim the remote control at the TV and press PWR once. The TV should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 2 and 3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not respond, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code).
