Entering the Manufacturer Code into the Fios Remote

- Locate the correct manufacturer code for your specific TV model.
- Turn on both your TV and Fios remote.
- Press and hold the “OK” and “0” buttons on the remote until the LED light blinks twice.

Did you know that programming remotes has been around since 1950? The first television remote control was created by Zenith Radio Corporation and called “Lazy Bones.” It used a mechanical cable to connect with a TV set and change channels or mute sound. Over time, these mechanical designs evolved into today’s digital remotes with advanced features like programmable buttons and voice commands.
