How to Program Philips Universal Remote Control

There are two ways to program your Philips universal remote, depending on your preference:

1. Automatic Method: The remote searches for your device’s code. This is faster and easier but may not work in all cases.
2. Manual Method: You manually input the correct code for your device. This is more precise but requires using the code list.

If the automatic method fails, don’t worry—you can always fall back on the manual approach.

Program Philips Universal Remote Control [Automatic Method ]

Step 1: Power On the Device

First, ensure the device you want to pair (e.g., TV, cable box, or soundbar) is turned on. If you’re pairing a TV, use the TV’s physical power button to turn it on.

Step 2: Activate Setup Mode

Locate the Setup Button on your Philips remote. It’s usually positioned under the main control buttons. Follow these steps:

• Press and hold the Setup Button until the red light at the top of the remote stays solid.
• Once the red light is solid, release the button.

This indicates your remote is now in setup mode.

Step 3: Select the Device Type

Identify the type of device you’re programming. The remote includes buttons for TV, Streaming Box, and Audio (e.g., soundbars, amplifiers).

• Press the button that corresponds to your device type (e.g., press TV for a television).
• The red light will blink momentarily and stay solid to confirm your selection.

Step 4: Point and Search for the Code

With the remote pointed at your device, press the Power Button repeatedly. After each press, pause for 1-2 seconds to allow the device to respond.

• The device will turn off once the correct code is found.
• If the device doesn’t turn off, keep pressing the Power Button until it does.

Step 5: Manually Power On the Device

After the remote powers off your device, turn the device back on manually using its physical power button. Avoid using the remote for now.

Step 6: Test the Volume Function

With the remote still pointed at the device, try the Volume Up Button.

• Press the button repeatedly until the device responds by turning off.
• If it doesn’t respond right away, keep trying.

Once the device turns off, you know the remote has successfully identified the correct code.

Step 7: Save the Code

To save the pairing, press the device button you selected earlier (e.g., TV).

• The red light will turn off, confirming the pairing is complete.

Step 8: Test the Remote Functions

Now, test the remote to ensure it’s working properly:

1. Power the device back on using the remote.
2. Test common functions like channel switching, volume control, and accessing menus.

If everything works as expected, you’re done! If not, you might need to try the manual method.

Troubleshooting the Automatic Method

If the automatic process didn’t work, here are a few tips to troubleshoot:

• Ensure your device is powered on and the remote is pointed directly at it during the setup.
• Check that you’re pressing the correct device button on the remote (e.g., TV for pairing with a TV).
• Move closer to the device if the signal isn’t strong enough.

Program Philips Universal Remote Control [Manual Method]

If the automatic method doesn’t work or you prefer more control, use the manual method.

Step 1: Find the Code List

Locate the code list that came with your Philips remote. This flyer lists 4-digit codes for various brands and devices.

If you’ve lost the code list, you can often find it online by searching for “Philips universal remote codes” along with your remote’s model number.

Step 2: Identify the Correct Code

Find the brand name of your device in the list and note the 4-digit codes provided.

• For example, if you have an LG TV, the code might be listed as 6021.
• Write down all the codes for your brand, as you may need to try multiple ones.

Step 3: Activate Setup Mode

Like in the automatic method, press and hold the Setup Button until the red light stays solid. Release the button when the light remains on.

Step 4: Select the Device Type

Press the button that matches your device type (e.g., TV for a television, Audio for a soundbar).

Step 5: Enter the Code

Using the number pad on the remote, enter the first 4-digit code from the list.

• If the red light turns off automatically after entering the code, the code is accepted.
• If the red light remains on, the code is incorrect. Try the next code on the list.

Step 6: Test the Remote Functions

After entering the code, test the remote. Check if the following works properly:

• Power on/off.
• Volume adjustments.
• Channel navigation.
• Menu access.

If some functions don’t work, repeat the process with the next code on the list until you find one that functions fully.

Troubleshooting the Manual Method

If the manual setup doesn’t work, here are common troubleshooting tips:

• Double-check that you’re entering the correct 4-digit code.
• Try multiple codes for the same brand if the first one doesn’t work.
• Ensure you’re holding the remote close to your device during setup.

Why Test the Remote After Setup?

Testing the remote thoroughly after setup ensures all features work as intended. This includes essential functions like changing the volume and navigating menus. Skipping the testing step might leave you without access to key functions, causing frustration later on.

Additional Tips for Success

• Reset the Remote: If the remote isn’t working as expected, you can reset it to factory settings by holding the Setup Button and Power Button simultaneously for 5 seconds.
• Lost the Code List? No problem! Look up code lists online or visit Philips’ support website to find the codes for your device.
