mining Remote to Control Cable Box
If your cable box has its own remote
to change channels, you will
probably be able to program the TV’s
remote to control
both the TV and
the cable box.
The TV’s remote is designed to
control several brands of cable
boxes. To program the remote, just
press CABLE, then ID, then the two­
digit code number for your brand of
cable box. Refer to the chart below
to find the code number for your
cable box. Press the OFFION button
next to confirm operation.
You may need to try each of the code
numbers listed for your brand until
you find the one that works.
After the TV’s remote is
programmed, you’ll be able to turn
on the cable box by pressing CABLE,
then OFFION. You can change
channels on the cable box by
pressing the CHANNEL buttons
whenever the remote is in the “cable”
mode. To put the remote in the
“cable” mode, press the CABLE
button. Press the 7Y button to put
the remote back into the TV mode so
the remote buttons will control the
TV again.

1. Refer to the chart below to find the
