Compatible Models

This setup guide applies to:

CHUNGHOP K-1028E
CHUNGHOP K-1028E Pro
CHUNGHOP K-100ES

These universal A/C remote controls use built-in A/C codes to control a wide range of air conditioners. Official product information also lists features such as brand-button pairing and timer functions.

Note: Button layouts and additional functions may vary between models. Always follow the labels on your actual remote control.

Method 1: Quick Search by Brand — Recommended

If your A/C brand appears in the brand table, this is usually the easiest setup method.

Step 1: Turn on the A/C power

Manually switch on the power supply to your air conditioner.

Point the universal remote toward the A/C's infrared receiving window.

Step 2: Press and hold the corresponding brand button

Step 3: Wait for the A/C to respond

Keep holding the corresponding button while pointing the remote at the air conditioner.

When the A/C beeps or starts operating, release the button immediately.

Step 4: Test the remote

Test the main functions:

ON/OFF → TEMP +/- → MODE → WIND → SWING

If all important functions work correctly, setup is complete.

If only some functions work, repeat the search to find another compatible code.

Method 2: Digital Automatic Code Search

Use this method if you don't know your A/C code.

Step 1

Turn on the A/C power manually and point the remote toward the receiving window.

Step 2

Press and hold SET for approximately 6 seconds.

When the code on the LCD starts changing rapidly (+1), the remote has entered automatic high-speed code search mode.

Step 3

Keep the remote pointed at the A/C.

When the air conditioner automatically starts or responds, press:

OK

to stop the search and save the code.

Step 4

Test the main functions.

If some functions do not work correctly, press SET again to continue searching for another compatible code.

Method 3: Enter the A/C Code Manually

If you know the brand of your air conditioner, find it in the supplied CODE LIST.

For example:

HAIER: 001–019, 470, 908

A single brand may have several compatible codes.

Step 1: Find the code

Find your A/C brand in the code list and start with the first listed code.

Step 2: Enter setup mode

Point the remote at the air conditioner.

Press and hold SET for approximately 3 seconds until the code on the LCD begins flashing.

Step 3: Select the code

Press:

TEMP + / TEMP -

until the required code appears on the display.

Step 4: Save the code

When the air conditioner responds, press:

OK

The code will stop flashing and will be saved.

Step 5: Test all important functions

Check power, temperature, mode, fan and swing.

If some functions do not work, repeat the procedure with the next code listed for your brand.

Method 4: Search for the Code Manually

If you don't know the exact code, you can search through the codes one by one.

1. Turn on the A/C power manually.
2. Point the remote at the A/C.
3. Hold SET for about 3 seconds until the code flashes.
4. Press TEMP + to increase the code step by step.
5. Watch the air conditioner carefully.
6. When the A/C starts or responds, press OK immediately.

The current code will be saved.

Restore Factory Settings

If you want to reset the remote and start again:

Press and hold:

SET + WIND

together for approximately 3 seconds.

The remote will return to its factory settings.

Fast Cooling & Fast Heating

Some models include dedicated F.Cool and F.Heat buttons.

F.Cool: Quickly switches the A/C to cooling operation.

F.Heat: Quickly switches the A/C to heating operation.

Availability depends on the functions supported by your air conditioner.

How to Set the Clock

For models equipped with a CLOCK button:

1. Press and hold CLOCK for about 3 seconds.
2. Wait for the clock display to flash.
3. Use TEMP + / TEMP - to adjust the time.
4. Press CLOCK again to save and exit.

Timer ON/OFF

Use:

TIME ON — Timer ON
TIME OFF — Timer OFF

When the A/C successfully receives the timer command, its timer indicator should normally turn on.

Some air conditioners may only support the TIME ON command while the unit is switched off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the POWER button work but other buttons don't?

You may have found a partially compatible code. Continue searching for another code for the same brand.

What if I don't know my A/C code?

Try the brand quick-search method first. If that doesn't work, use the automatic search by holding SET for about 6 seconds.

Do I need the original A/C remote?

No. These universal remotes use a built-in code database, so the original remote is not required for code setup.

How do I know when setup is complete?

Don't test only the POWER button. Test temperature, mode, fan and swing as well. Choose the code that provides the most complete control.
