This method allows the remote to automatically search for the correct code for your air conditioner.
- Ensure your air conditioner is powered on.

- Once the air conditioner responds (e.g., turns on/off, changes mode), immediately press the OK button to confirm the code. The flashing code will stop.
- Test the remote's functions (e.g., ON/OFF, temperature adjustment) to ensure it controls your AC unit correctly. If not, repeat the process.
3. Code Setting (Manual Input - if code is known)
If you know the specific code for your air conditioner brand, you can input it directly.
- Press and hold the SET button until the code on the LCD screen starts flashing.
- Use the TEMP ▲ or TEMP ▼ buttons to manually enter the 3-digit code.
- Once the correct code is displayed, press the OK button to confirm.
