MBR 3400 Series Remote ZENITH REMOTE MANUAL 3 MBR3300/3400 REMOTES REMOTE PROGRAMMING PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS If you're using Zenith products, the remote is already programmed for most common codes: TV = 101, VCR = 201, CABLE = 353, and AUX = 401. For other brands, or if your remote fails to control your Zenith products, you'll have to program the remote. Make sure the batteries are installed and follow these steps for each product: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Press and hold PRG using a blunt pointed object. Release PRG after the indicator light turns on.

Point the remote at the product and press POWER to test the product's operation. If it does not turn on, reprogram the remote using a different code. CABLE BOX This remote can control the cable/converter box volume and muting (instead of the TV's) if available on your equipment. 1. Program the cable/converter box normally. 2. After programming the cable/converter box, Press and hold PRG again using a blunt pointed object. Release PRG after the indicator light turns on. 3.

Press and release ENTER to save. AUXILIARY CAPABILITY This remote can control up to seven devices. If the remote has been programmed for four components using the TV, VCR, CABLE and AUX keys, you may also program it for up to three additional using AUX+1, AUX+2 and AUX+3.

Repeat steps 2-4 for AUX+2 and AUX+3. 6. Write the codes on the label inside battery compartment for future reference. Hold down AUX and press 1, 2, or 3 access AUX+1. +2 or +3 mode. AUTO FIND If none of the codes in the code table operate your equipment, use Auto Find to search for the proper code. 1. Turn on the product you want to operate. 2. Press and hold PRG using a blunt pointed object. Release PRG after the indicator light turns on. 3. Press the key to be programmed (CATV, VCR, AUX, or TV). 4. Enter "000", then press ENTER within two seconds. Auto Find is active after the indicator light flashes and remains lit. 5. Point the remote at the product. 6. Press and release POWER repeatedly, about once a second, until your product turns Off. The indicator light turns off when you press POWER and on when you release it. 7. Once the product turns off, press ENTER immediately to save the code. The indicator light flashes to indicate the code has been saved. 8. Press POWER to turn On your product. 9. Test your product. If the remote fails to operate the functions you use most often, use Auto Find again to search for a better code. (Auto Find resumes its search after the last code that was entered and saved in step 7). NOTE: If the indicator light stays on as you press POWER, Auto Find has tried all of the codes. If the product you want to control has not turned off, this remote will not work with that product. To cancel Auto Find, press PRG at any time during Auto Find.
