damage the unit's security system.
• Do not subject your remote control to dust, strong sunlight, moisture, high temperatures
or strong vibrations.
Battery instructions
• Keep children away from the batteries. Seek medical attention immediately in the event
of a battery being swallowed.
• Before inserting the batteries, check whether the contacts in the device and batteries are
clean and, if necessary, clean them.
• Only use new batteries. Never use old and new batteries together.
• Do not use a combination of battery types.
• Please note the polarity (+/-) when inserting the batteries.
• WARNING! There is a risk of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced. Replace the
batteries only with the same or equivalent type.
• Never try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of an explosion!
• Store batteries in a cool, dry location. Direct strong heat can damage the batteries. For
that reason do not expose the device to any sources of strong heat.
• Never short-circuit the batteries.
• Never throw batteries into a fire.
• If the appliance is not going to be used for long periods, remove the batteries.
• Immediately remove leaking batteries from the device. Clean the contacts before
inserting new batteries. There is a risk of corrosion due to battery acid!
• Also remove dead batteries from the device.
Cleaning
Clean the device with a dry or lightly dampened, lint free cloth. Do not use any corrosive
or aggressive cleaning products.
Product Description 2
This universal remote control has eight mode keys and therefore can replace up to eight
normal remote controls ("8 in 1 function“). These may be remote controls for practically
every type of remote-controlled consumer electronics (see the supplied code list).
The labels "TV" "VCR" "DVD" "CD" "ASAT" "CBL" "AUX" "DSAT" on the mode keys are for
overview purposes. With the exception of the TV key, you can assign any key to any
device (“Flex Mode”). To program in codes see “Programming device codes” on page 10.
Operation 3
Inserting batteries
2 LR03 AAA micro batteries are supplied.
Remove the battery compartment cover by pushing it downwards.
Insert both batteries into the compartment while observing the +/-
polarity.
Replace the cover.
Settings after battery replacement

If the batteries have been inserted correctly, the factory setting is
displayed. It shows the active mode ("TV"), the day of the week and
the time.
` Please read “Setting time and date” on page 7 for more
information on setting the time and date.
After new batteries have been inserted, the mode, time,
date and backlight time are reset to the factory settings.
However, codes that have already been programmed in as well as programmed learn
functions and macros are retained when batteries are changed.
Protection against unexpected battery discharging

If a key remains pressed down by accident (because something is lying on the remote
control for example), the remote control sends 255 infrared signals (for approximately 30
seconds) and this ends the transmission. This prevents the batteries from discharging
accidentally.

without requiring any extra programming.
Device types and code groups

You can choose between the following device types when programming in codes:
TV: TV set, projector, plasma screen, LCD;
VCR: Video recorder;
LD: Laser disc player;
DVD: DVD player;
DVR: Digital video recorder;
HDD: Hard disk drive;
SAT: Satellite receivers (analogue, digital);
CABLE: Cable box, Pay TV decoder;
DVBT: DVB-T receivers;
STB: Set top box;
AUDIO: Audio device;
AMP: Amplifier;
RECR: Receiver (combined radio and amplifier);
HTIB: Home Cinema;
MP3: MP3 player;

programme guide.
• For DVD codes the button opens the title menu.
• For VCR codes you can use the button for programming, if your video recorder has a
Showview function.
If the device has both an EPG and a Showview function, the EPG function is given priority.
Operating combined devices

Combined devices are for example a TV set with an integrated video recorder, a TV set
with a DVD player or a DVD recorder with a video recorder. Several controlling options are
available to combined devices.
Combined devices with two device codes

Some combined devices (e.g. TV set with video recorder) require two device codes - one
for each device part. Program the correct TV code on the TV mode key and the video
recorder code on the other mode key. The combined device is then controlled like two
separate devices.
Combined devices with one device code

Other combined devices only require one code. In this case, you must first select the
device part you would like to operate.
Example: The device is a combined DVD recorder/video recorder. The device code was
stored on the DVD mode key.
Now activate the DVD part in the combined device by holding down the DVD mode key
for longer than one second.
To activate the video recorder in the combined device, first briefly press the Setup key for
the SHIFT function, then the DVD mode key.
If your combined unit only requires one code but you would like to operate it with two
mode keys, then proceed as follows:
Programme the device code to two mode keys.
Operate one of the unit parts with one of the two mode keys.
Use the learn function (see “Learn function” on page 22) to transfer the desired functions
of the other unit part to the other mode key.

Notes on learn function

• Use new batteries for both remote controls.
• If you start programming from the start
– especially after the first operation – delete all saved commands first of all (see
“Deleting commands for all mode keys” on page 24).
• Only one original remote control can be programmed on each mode key.
• If you would like to program an original remote control to a mode key, first delete the
commands on this mode key (see Deleting commands for only one mode key on page
24).
• The LEARN ERROR message is displayed if the memory is full. If this happens, delete saved
commands.
• Programming each key can take approx. 3 seconds. Do not release the key to be learned
before the SUCCESS or LEARN ERROR message appears.
• The following keys cannot be assigned to functions: Setup, MACRO and all mode keys.
• Some original remote controls (for DVD, video recorder, SAT) can themselves be
programmed with the device codes of some TV brands to carry out basic TV set
functions (volume, mute, channel search).
Do not attempt to transfer the functions of an original remote control that has been
programmed with the code of a different TV set to your universal remote control. This
could cause programming errors.
• First try to program two or three commands and then test them.
• Before programming in your commands, first delete all existing commands (see “Deleting
commands for all mode keys” on page 24).
Do not execute the learn function under a low-energy lamp. Such lamps (e.g.
fluorescent lamps) can contain infrared light components that could influence the
learn function.

Macros 13
Using a macro, you can save a chain of commands, meaning that several functions can be
executed consecutively. You can program three macros and store them on the number
keys 1, 2 and 3.
These three number keys have the additional labels TV, VCR,
DVD, so that you can assign macros accordingly.
Each macro can include up to ten key commands. A macro can
include different devices. In this way you could, for example, switch on the TV set, the
desired channel, the video recorder and the recording function by simply pressing the
MACRO key and the selected number key 1, 2 or 3.
The Setup and MACRO keys cannot be used for a macro.
If you would like to interrupt macro programming prematurely, press Setup. In this case,
the macro is not saved.
Programming macros
1. Keep the Setup key pressed for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE
SETUP appears.
2. Press Setup briefly four more times to open the MACRO

SETUP menu.
3. Press OK to open the MACRO SET mode.
4. Confirm once again with OK.
5. Now select the number key 1, 2 or 3 where the macro is to

be saved.
6. The query MACRO 1 MODE? appears. (The number
corresponds to the previously selected number key.) Press a
mode key for the device where the command is to start.
7. The input query MACRO 1 KEY? appears with the step number
(02 for the second step). Now carry out the function that you
would like to save as a macro. You can press up to 9 other
keys and you can also change devices via the mode keys.
8. When the series of steps is finished, press the MACRO key to
save the macro.
The macro is saved automatically after step 10.
9. The SUCCESS confirmation message appears.
Incorporating delays
It can be useful to incorporate a time delay before a command step in order to take the
warm-up phase of the TV set into consideration, for example. The standard delay between
the infrared signals is equal to half a second.
1. While entering the steps (see Point 7 above) press the PAUSE
key at the point where the time delay should be
incorporated.
The DELAY TIME? query appears.
2. Press a number key corresponding to the seconds by which
you would like to delay (e.g. “3” for a 3-second delay). The
maximum delay is 9 seconds.
Executing macros
1. To execute a macro, briefly press the MACRO key once in
normal mode. The following message appears: MACRO
KEY?.
2. Then press the number key where the macro was saved
within 20 seconds (1, 2 or 3).
While the macro is running, MACRO 1 (or 2 or 3) appears along

with the transmission symbol.
If no macro is saved under the selected numberkey, the
message MACRO 1 VOID appears.
Deleting macros
Perform steps 1 to 3 as described in section “Programming
macros on page 25. The MACRO SET display appears.
4. Use the arrows to select the MACRO CLEAR mode.
5. Press OK" The following message appears: MACRO KEY?.

6. Press the number key where the macro is stored for the
macro that you would like to delete.
7. The CONFIRM CLEAR prompt appears.
8. Confirm once again with OK. PLEASE WAIT appears again in

the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS.
Universal functions (“Punch Through”) 14
The universal functions (also called “Punch Through” functions) enable you to carry out
certain functions on a different device type than the programmed one. These are the
volume, mute and playback functions.
Playback functions
If the remote control is in TV, SAT or cable mode (devices without playback function), the
PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, FAST FORWARD/BACK, and in some cases RECORD keys will
control a connected video recorder, DVD player or video recorder. The DVD or VCR mode
keys do not need to be pressed in advance. The last selected device is activated.
This Punch Through control does not work if the programmed TV, SAT or cable code has
its own video recorder function (for example in the case of a combined TV-video recorder
device).
Volume/mute
Image transmitting devices connected to a TV (e.g. TV, DVD, VCR, SAT, CBL) often do not
have their own volume control.
When the universal remote control is controlling this type of device and the VOL
(Volume) or ( ) (Mute) keys are pressed, the volume control is transferred to the TV.
You can modify this basic device setting (cf. both sections below).
The volume/mute functions are referred to in the shortened form VOL/MUTE below.
Programming the VOL/MUTE universal functions to another device type
You can program the remote control so that the universal functions VOL/MUTEwill control
a device type other than the TV set. Of course this device must have a volume control.
3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed.
4. Press OK again. The following menu is displayed ALL VOL.

SET. All VOL/MUTE commands are programmed on a device
type that you select in the next step.
5. Press OK again. The ALL VOL MODE? query appears.
6. Use a mode key to select the device type to which the

VOL/MUTE control is to be applied.

If you selected the wrong device that does not have its own
volume control, an error message appears.
Switching off the VOL/MUTE universal function for a specific device
You can program the universal remote control in such a way that it will use only that
particular device’s own VOL/MUTE functions. The "Punch Through" function for this
device is therefore switched off.
The universal function cannot be switched off for the TV mode. As described in the
previous section, if you have selected a different mode for the VOL/MUTE universal
function, you will not be able to switch off the universal function
for this mode either.

4. Press OK again. The ALL VOL SET menu is displayed.
5. Use the arrows to select the MODE VOL. SET menu. Use
this menu to switch off the VOL/MUTE universal function for
an individual device that you can select in the next step.
6. Press OK" The MODE VOL MODE? query appears.
7. Use a mode key to select the device type which should have
its own VOL/MUTE control (not: TV).
8. PLEASE WAIT appears in the display, followed by the

Restoring the VOL/MUTE universal function factory settings
If you have changed the universal VOL/MUTE functions as described in the previous two
sections, you can reset the functions to the factory settings.
4. Press OK again. The VOL/MUTE ALL menu is displayed.

5. Use the arrows (press twice) to select the VOL/MUTE
RESET menu.
6. Press OK" The CONFIRM RESET message is displayed.
7. Confirm with OK to reset the settings.

Error recovery 15
The display remains dark:
• Check whether the remote control batteries have been correctly inserted and have
matching +/– polarity.
• If the batteries are too weak then replace them with new ones.
The remote control does not work:
• Check whether your devices have been properly connected and are switched on.
There are several device codes listed under the brand name of my device. How do I
determine the correct device code?
• To determine the correct device code for your device, try each consecutive code until
most of the functions of the device function properly.
The devices only respond to a few remote control commands:
• Continue testing further codes until the devices respond to the commands accordingly.
• If none of the code programmings described are successful, it may be, in exceptional
cases, that the device is not compatible with your universal remote control.
Disposal 16
Packaging
Your universal remote control is wrapped in packaging to protect it against
transportation damage. Packaging is raw material and can be reused or added to
the recycling system.
Device
At the end of its life, the universal remote control should not be disposed of in
household rubbish. Seek the advice of your local authority on correct,
environmentally-friendly disposal.
Batteries
Do not dispose of used batteries in the household rubbish! They should be
deposited at a collection point for used batteries.
