Common Questions
10 totalHow do I insert batteries into the universal remote?
Check the battery polarity when inserting batteries into the battery compartment, as incorrect polarity may damage the product. Never mix different brands or types of batteries, as this risks decreased battery life. Keep batteries away from heat, sunshine, or fire, and never discard them in fire due to explosion risk.
How do I set up the universal remote using code selection?
Switch on your device, then press and hold the device selection button (e.g., TV) for 5 seconds until the red LED is on. Look up the 5-digit code for your brand in the code list, enter it using the digit buttons, and if the light goes off, the code is saved. If the light flashes six times and remains on, repeat the process with the next code on the list.
What does it mean when the LED flashes six times during setup?
The LED flashing six times and then remaining on indicates that an invalid code was entered during setup. You need to repeat the setup process from step 2 and enter the next code on the code list for your device brand.
How does Auto registration work?
Press and hold the device selection button for 5 seconds until the red LED is on, point the remote at your device, then press and release OK to start searching. A different infrared signal is sent every 2 seconds (indicated by a blue flash), and when your device turns off, immediately press and release OK to save the code within the maximum 20-minute window. The blue LED indicator will turn off when the code is saved.
Can I learn commands from my original remote?
Yes, you can learn commands from your original remote by using the learning function. You must have an original remote for the Universal Remote Control to learn code from it, and the two remotes should be placed on a flat surface 3 to 5 cm apart, aiming at each other.
What is the learning code and how do I use it?
The learning code is 9-9-9-0-0 for learning new commands and 9-9-9-1-0 for clearing learned codes. After pressing and holding the device selection button for 5 seconds until the red LED is on, enter the appropriate learning code to activate either learning or clearing mode.
