3.1 Confirming IR Remote Compatibility

Figure 3.1: Checking for IR Signal Light

To confirm if your original remote is an IR remote, point its front end towards a smartphone camera. Press any button on the original remote. If you see a flashing light on your phone screen, your remote is an IR remote and compatible with this learning remote.

3.2 Battery Installation

Before operation, ensure you have installed 2xAAA alkaline batteries into the learning remote control. Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote, insert the batteries according to the polarity indicators (+/-), and close the cover securely.

3.3 Learning Process

Follow these steps to program the Olizen Universal Remote Control:

This image provides a visual representation of each step in the learning process, showing the positioning of the remotes and the buttons to press.

1. Step 1: Position Remotes
   Hold both the original remote control and the learning remote control at a distance of 2-5 cm (approximately 1-2 inches) from each other, with their IR emitters facing each other.
2. Step 2: Activate Learning Mode
   Press and hold the POWER and CH ^ buttons simultaneously on the learning remote control. The LED indicator on the learning remote will start blinking continuously, indicating that the learning system is activated.
3. Step 3: Select Button to Learn
   Press the desired button on the learning remote control (e.g., the POWER button). The LED indicator will stop blinking and remain lit, waiting for the signal.
4. Step 4: Learn Command
   While keeping the original remote control aimed at the learning remote, press and hold the corresponding button on the original remote (e.g., its Power button) for at least 2 seconds. Upon successful reception of the signal, the LED on the learning remote will blink 3 times quickly and then return to continuous blinking. Release the button on the original remote.
5. Step 5: Learn More Buttons
   To program additional buttons, repeat Step 3 and Step 4 for each desired button (e.g., Volume +, Volume -, Channel +, Channel -, AV).
6. Step 6: Exit Learning Mode
   Once you have finished programming all desired buttons, press the POWER and CH ^ buttons simultaneously again on the learning remote. The LED indicator will turn off, signifying that the learning mode has been exited.

Note: The learning mode will automatically exit if there is no button pressed for 10 seconds. If a button does not work after programming, please repeat the learning steps for that specific button.

4. Operating Instructions

Once programmed, the Olizen Universal Remote Control functions like your original remote for the learned commands. Simply point the remote at your device (TV, IR cable box) and press the desired button.

• POWER Button: Turns your device on or off.
• VOL + / - Buttons: Adjusts the volume up or down.
• CH ^ / v Buttons: Changes the channel up or down.

The remote is designed to work with a wide range of major TV brands once programmed. It is important to note that it is not compatible with Cable Boxes, Fire Sticks, Roku Sticks, or DVD/Blu-Ray players, as it is designed for IR TV and IR cable box control only.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your remote control, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the remote with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the remote's response becomes sluggish or the LED indicator does not light up. Always use new AAA alkaline batteries and dispose of old batteries responsibly.
• Storage: Store the remote in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
