Programming the Onn Remote with a Code
Follow these steps to program your remote using a code:
Test the Remote: Point the remote at the TV and press the POWER button. If the TV turns off, the remote is programmed. If not, repeat steps 3–5 with another code.
Turn on Your Sanyo TV: Ensure the TV is powered on, not in standby mode.
Press the TV Button: Press the TV button on your Onn remote to select the device.
Enter Programming Mode: Press and hold the SETUP button until the LED light blinks twice (it blinks once, then twice).
Enter the 4-Digit Code: Use the number buttons to enter a code (e.g., 0, 1, 1, 0 for 0110).
Confirm the Code: The LED should blink twice again to show the code is set.
Test the Remote: Point the remote at the TV and press the POWER button. If the TV turns off, the remote is programmed. If not, repeat steps 3–5 with another code.
Troubleshooting Code Issues
If the code doesn’t work:
- Check that you entered the code correctly.
- Try another code, like 2458 or 0180.
- Point the remote directly at the TV with no obstacles.
- Replace the batteries if the LED doesn’t blink.
Programming the Onn Remote Without a Code
If codes don’t work or you prefer another method, use the auto-code search:
- Turn on Your Sanyo TV: Make sure the TV is on.
- Enter Programming Mode: Press and hold the SETUP button until the LED lights up.
- Select TV Mode: Press the TV button; the LED blinks once and stays on.
- Auto-Search: Point the remote at the TV and press and hold the OK button. The remote cycles through codes until the TV turns off.
- Lock the Code: Release the OK button when the TV turns off. The code is set.
- Test the Remote: Turn the TV back on and test functions like volume and input.
Tips for Auto-Code Search
- Be patient; the process may take a minute.
- If the TV doesn’t turn off, restart and try again.
- Avoid interruptions from other remotes or devices.
Testing the Remote
After programming, test these functions:
- Power on/off
- Volume up/down
- Channel up/down (if applicable)
- Input selection (e.g., HDMI, AV)
If some functions don’t work, try another code or repeat the auto-search. Some Sanyo TV models may not support all functions with the Onn remote.
