6. To check for other device codes, repeat steps 1—5, substituting the device key the desired mode you would like to check.

USING LEARNING

This universal remote control includes a Learning feature (some models may not include Learning) so you can add functions that are unique to your home entertainment devices (e.g.,VCR Tracking Up or Down). However, there are some considerations.
Learning Precautions

• Your original remote controls must be in working order for learning to work properly.
• Learned keys are mode-specific, so each one can store a unique function for each mode.
• Do not use the following keys for learning: Device Keys, SETUP, or Record (•).
• Learning capacity is approximately 42 to 75 keys, depending on the code being learned.
• Certain device functions are not learnable including multi-frequency types, some high frequency ones, and other unusual formats.
• For optimum learning, avoid high levels of ambient light such as natural sunlight or energy-efficient fluorescent lights.

NOTE: Please have your original remote controls handy before programming learning.
Programming a Learned Key
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

1. Place the On-Q remote head-to-head (about 2" apart) from your original remote control. Also locate the key (on your original remote control) that you want the Potenza to learn. Press the mode key you wish to learn keys on.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice, then release. 
3. Enter 9 7 5 . The LED blinks twice.
   NOTE: If the LED displays one long flash instead, either your batteries are low, or the On-Q remote has a memory fault. In either case, the remote cannot learn a new key.
4. Press the key on the remote you wish to learn onto. The feedback LED will blink rapidly for three seconds, suggesting the remote is ready to learn.
5. On the original remote, press and hold the key to be learned. Continue holding the key on the original remote until the On-Q remote’s LED blinks twice.
   NOTE: If the LED displays one long blink, a learning error has occurred. Try repeating this step again until a successful capture occurs. If the function is still not captured, press and hold SETUP to exit programming and review the “Learning Precautions” above. If needed, also see “Troubleshooting” below. After review, start programming again at step 1. 
6. Repeat steps 4 through 5 for another key you would like to learn about. Once you have completed learning all keys, press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice to save all data learned.

Deleting a Single Learning Key
This process returns the key to its original programming for the mode you select. You can also delete learned programming by teaching a different function to the key (see “Programming a Learned Key”).
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

1. Press the mode key that you wish to remove the learned key from.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice, then release.
3. Enter 9 7 6 . The LED blinks twice.
4. Press the key containing the learned function to be deleted twice. The LED blinks twice and exits from programming.

Deleting All Learned Keys in a Specific Mode
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.
