Frequently Asked Questions - XRU9M VIZIO

How do I program the remote for my TV?

Turn on your TV. Press the TV button, then press and hold SET until the LED flashes twice. Enter the 4-digit code from the code list (e.g., 1000 for VIZIO). The LED will flash twice if accepted. Point the remote at the TV and press POWER to test.

What if my device is not in the code list?

If the brand is not listed or codes don't work, use the code search method: press the device button, hold SET until LED flashes twice, enter 991, then press and hold POWER until the device turns off. Release and test.

How do I reset the remote to factory settings?

Press and hold SET until the LED flashes twice, then press 91919 (9-1-9-1-9). The LED will flash twice to confirm.

Why does the remote turn off after 30 seconds?

This is the Battery Saver feature. The remote automatically powers off if buttons are pressed for more than 30 seconds to conserve battery life. This is normal.

How long can I change batteries without losing programmed codes?

The Code Saver feature retains programmed codes for up to 10 minutes when batteries are removed. Avoid pressing any buttons until new batteries are installed.

Can I control multiple devices with this remote?

Yes, the remote can control up to 4 devices (TV, DVD, Audio, Cable/Satellite). Press the corresponding mode button (TV, DVD, AUDIO, CABLE) to switch between them.

My remote is not responding. What should I check?

First, ensure you are pointing the remote directly at the device and remove obstacles. Check if the batteries are fresh and installed correctly (match +/-). If using a VIZIO TV, press the DTV button to return to TV mode.

How do I clean the remote control?

Use a soft cloth for cleaning. For heavy dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with diluted neutral cleaner, then wring it out well to avoid moisture entering the remote. Never use abrasive cleaners.

What batteries does the remote use?

The remote requires 2 AAA batteries (not included). Do not mix old and new batteries, and dispose of them according to local regulations.

Does the remote work with all VIZIO TVs?

The remote is pre-programmed to operate VIZIO TVs using code 1000. It should work with most VIZIO LCD HDTV models. If not, try the code search method or refer to the code list.
