PREPARE FOR USE

Read these instructions carefully before programming your remote control!

Before programming and using the remote control, fit the batteries.

The remote control requires 2 new AAA/LR03 batteries. Insert the batteries as shown:

• Change the batteries if the light indicator starts to flash during use. The batteries are low.
• Make a note of the codes for your appliances on the adhesive label inside the battery cover in case you have to reprogramme your remote control.
• This remote control has a permanent memory and does not lose the programmed codes or functions when the batteries are removed.

HOW TO PROGRAMME THE REMOTE CONTROL

The TV - VCR - DVD - SAT - TER keys can be programmed according to your requirements, following the procedure described below.

The quickest and easiest way to programme the remote control is by consulting the website www.cme.it.

Warning: programme one appliance at a time!

1. Turn on the appliance to be programmed:

-if a VCR, insert a cassette
- if a TV, SAT or TER select a programme
-if a DVD insert a DVD.

1. Look for the brand of the appliance you want to programme in the code list and make a note of the corresponding code alongside (e.g. PHILIPS 0025).
2. Hold down the selection key for the appliance to be programmed for 5 seconds.
3. When the key is released, it will start to flash. Enter the brand code previously identified (e.g. 0025). The selection key flashes more quickly to indicate that the remote control is ready for the search.
4. Point the remote control towards the appliance. Press and slowly release the ON/OFF key or PLAY for the VCR and DVD several times, stopping when the appliance responds correctly to the command.
5. When the appliance responds correctly, press the OK key to confirm. Three flashes indicate that the search operation has been completed correctly.

PHILIPS 0025

ADDITIONAL CHECK

Check that some of the other keys, corresponding to those on your original remote control, work correctly. If the commands function incorrectly or erratically, you have probably entered a code for a similar remote control but not the right one. In this case, repeat the search procedure starting from point 3, entering the code previously used (e.g. 0025).

To display and make a note of the code memorized by means of the search, follow the instructions described in the paragraph CURRENT CODE DISPLAY.

NB: THE LIGHT INDICATOR STOPS FLASHING

The remote control exits programming mode and the light indicator stops flashing:

• if no keys are pressed for 14 seconds
• if an invalid brand code is entered
• if a key other than ON/OFF or PLAY is accidentally pressed
• if the end of the code search list has been reached. In this case, consult the website www.cme.it

GLOBAL SEARCH REMOTE CONTROL PROGRAMMING

This operation can take up to 20 minutes and should be carried out if you have not succeeded in programming the remote control by means of the method described above.

The quickest and easiest way to programme the remote control is by consulting the website www.cme.it.

Warning:programme one appliance at a time!

1. Turn on the appliance to be programmed:

-if a VCR, insert a cassette
- if a TV, SAT or TER select a programme
- if a DVD insert a DVD.

1. Hold down the selection key for the appliance to be programmed for 5 seconds.
2. When the key is released, it will start to flash. Enter the code 0000; the selection key flashes more quickly to indicate that the remote control is ready for the search.
3. Point the remote control at the appliance. Press and slowly release the ON/OFF key or PLAY for the VCR and DVD several times, stopping when the appliance responds correctly to the command.
4. When the appliance responds correctly, press OK to confirm. Three flashes indicate that the search operation has been completed correctly.

ADDITIONAL CHECK

Check that some of the other keys, corresponding to those on your original remote control, work correctly. If the commands function incorrectly or erratically, you have probably entered a code for a similar remote control but not the right one. In this case, repeat the search procedure starting from point 2.

To display and make a note of the code memorized by means of the search, follow the instructions described in the paragraph CURRENT CODE DISPLAY.

NB: THE LIGHT INDICATOR STOPPS FLASHING.

The remote control exits programming mode and the light indicator stops flashing:

• if no keys are pressed for 14 seconds
• if a key other than ON/OFF or PLAY is accidentally pressed
• if the code search list is completed. In this case consult the site www.cme.it

To find out the code of your remote control, follow this procedure:

1. Press the select key for which you want to know the code and hold down for 5 seconds.
2. When the key is released it will start to flash; press and release the 1-/- key within 8 seconds.
3. After a pause of several seconds, the indicator light produces four series of flashes with a space between them, corresponding to the code you are looking for. Count the number of flashes; each series of flashes corresponds to one figure in the code. 10 flashes correspond to 0.
4. Note the code on the adhesive label inside the battery cover in case you have to reprogramme the remote control subsequently.

$$ \begin{array}{l} \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots = 1 \ = 3 \ 0 \ \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots \dots = 6 \ \text {C o d e} = 1 3 0 6 \ \end{array} $$

NB: this operation cannot be interrupted and the remote control cannot therefore be used until the end of the four series of flashes.

ENTERING THE CODE

If you know the exact code with which to programme the remote control, enter it as follows:

1. Hold down the selection key for the appliance to be programmed for 5 seconds.
2. When the key is released it will start to flash; enter the code (e.g. TV 1306). Three flashes indicate that the operation has been completed correctly.

TV FUNCTIONS ALWAYS ACTIVE

The functions Mute, Vol -, Vol + and AV are memorized on the keys F1, F2, F3, F4. These functions can be used to control appliances other than the TV. For further information consult the on-line guide on the site www.cme.it

HOW TO USE THE ADDITIONAL COMMANDS WHICH DO NOT APPEAR ON THE KEYPAD

Although not indicated on the keypad, some keys can be used for additional commands.

The symbol of the crossed trash can shown on the remote control indicates that once the product has reached the end of its working life it should be disposed of separately from other waste. The user should, therefore, take the remote control to a specialised collection centre for electronic and electrical waste, or hand it over to the dealer when purchasing a new similar remote control, on a one to one basis. Correct separated collection for subsequent recycling, processing and environmentally compatible disposal contributes in preventing possible negative effects on the environment and on health and favours the recycling of the materials used in producing the remote control. Improper disposal of the product by the user leads to application of the penalties as per legislative decree no. 22/1997 (article 50 and following of decree no. 22/1997).
