Using Your Remote
Set Up Your Remote
To prepare the remote, first insert the batteries, then program the remote for use with your equipment.
Insert Batteries
The remote uses two AA (LR6) batteries (supplied).
To insert batteries into the Xbox 360® Universal Media Remote:
Remove the remote battery cover.
Insert two new AA batteries as shown on the underside of the remote battery cover. For best performance, use disposable rather than rechargeable batteries.
Replace the remote battery cover.
Program the Universal Media Remote for Your TV
Before your remote can work with your TV, you need to program it for use with your particular brand of TV. Two methods exist for programming your remote: manually entering your TV code and scanning to find your TV code.
To enter a TV code:
Turn on your TV and point the remote toward it.
Press and hold the TV and OK buttons simultaneously for two seconds. All buttons on the remote will then light up for two seconds, after which only the numeric TV buttons (1–12) will remain lit.
Enter the code for your TV.
To find a remote code for your TV, see TV Codes for the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote
Press the TV button again to save the code and exit. All buttons on the remote will blink three times to confirm your selection.
Note
After 30 seconds of inactivity, the remote will exit TV programming mode. Pressing any button besides 0–9, CH+, or CH– returns the remote to its original settings.
Press the TV button again to restore full TV/Xbox 360 operability.
To scan for a TV code:
Turn on your TV and point the remote toward it.
Press and hold the TV and OK buttons simultaneously for two seconds. All buttons on the remote will then light up for two seconds, after which only the numeric TV buttons (1–12) will remain lit.
Press the CH+ or CH– button to send a series of off commands to your TV. Repeat until the TV turns off.
Note
Give your TV enough time to respond to the off command after each button press. Some TVs take more time to react to off commands than others.
Press the TV button to save the code and exit. All buttons on the remote will blink three times to confirm the code.
Press the TV button again to restore full TV/Xbox 360 operability.
Note
If, after setting the TV code, you find that the remote is not functional or has incomplete or inaccurate TV functionality, try a different code for your TV manufacturer or scan for another code.
