In the “Remote Control” menu, find the “Programming a Remote Control” option and press “Enter” to select it.
7. Select Your Device
You will now be prompted to select the type of device you want to program the remote for. Choose the appropriate option, such as “TV,” “Cable Box,” or “DVD Player.”
8. Enter the Device Code
After selecting your device, you will need to enter the device code. This code is specific to your device and can be found in the user manual or by searching online. Use the number buttons on your remote to enter the code.
9. Test the Remote
Once you have entered the device code, press the “Power” button on your remote. If your device turns off, it means the remote has been programmed successfully. If not, repeat the process, making sure to enter the correct code.
