How to Program Hama Universal Remotes

1. Direct Code Entry

1. Turn on your device
   • Ensure that the device you want to control (TV, DVD, STB, etc.) is powered on.
2. Enter Setup Mode
   • For most models: Press and hold the SETUP button until the LED lights up permanently (approximately 3 seconds).
   • For 00012306 & 00012307: The LED will flash once and then stay on.
3. Select Device Type
   • Press the appropriate device key once (e.g., TV, DVD, STB, AUX). The LED will flash once and then remain on.
4. Enter the Setup Code
   • Enter the correct code (3, 4, or 5 digits depending on the model – check the code finder tool); the LED flashes after each digit and turns off when complete, or blinks twice if invalid.
5. Save and Exit
   • For most models: The code is automatically saved once entered successfully.
   • For 00012047 and 00012083: After entering the code, press SHIFT, then OK, and press SHIFT again to save the code.
6. Test the Remote
   • Check if the desired functions can be controlled. If some functions do not work, try the next code listed for your device/brand from the code finder.

Notes:

• Invalid Code: If an invalid code is entered, the LED will flash 3 or 6 times and turn off. Enter a new code to try again.
• Exiting Setup Mode: If no button is pressed for 35 seconds, the LED will flash 6 times, and the remote will exit Setup mode without saving changes.
• Multiple Device Programming: Program any device type under any device key (e.g., TV, DVD, AUX). For single-device use, program the same code under all keys to prevent misconfiguration.
• Battery Replacement: Codes remain stored for up to 10 minutes after battery removal. After 10 minutes, all codes will be deleted.
• Code Testing: If the first code doesn’t work completely, try the next code for your device/brand.

4. Press the POWER or PROG+/PROG- key (or CH+/CH- for Hama 00040074, 00012047, 00012083) repeatedly to scroll through preset codes until the device responds (e.g., turns off or changes channels).
