do an auto search.(you will need the tv turned on)
1-press the tv button (not the red one but the one on the top left of the remote next to the sat button) hold it down until you see it blink.
2-press the red power button once
3-keep pressing channel up (using the up arrow button), do this kind of slowly until the tv turns off
4-as soon as the tv turns off press the pound button, then just press the sat button on the upper left of the remote one time and you're good to go.
if you were accidently pressing the channel up button too fast and pressed it again after the tv turned off, repeat the step BUT instead of going channel up, you want to press the channel down arrow, you'll have to turn the tv on for this step too. it should turn off only after the first or 2nd time you press the channel down arrow. after it turns off again, press pound then sat.
