SAVE THIS MANUAL AND THE CODE LISTS!

Remote controls can sometimes lose their programming when you change the batteries. Make sure you keep the manual and code lists in a safe place so that you can reprogram the remote if you need to.

Tip: This remote is already programmed to operate most RCA-branded TVs, VCRs, DVD players and satellite receivers. Just press the corresponding key—DVD for

a DVD player, TV for a television, SAT•CBL•DTC for a satellite receiver, VCR•AUX for a VCR.

Step 1: Install your batteries

Your universal remote requires two AA alkaline batteries (batteries may or may not be included, depending on model).

To install the batteries:

1. Remove the battery compartment

cover.

2. Insert the batteries, matching the

batteries to the (+) and (–) marks inside the battery compartment.

Step 2: Program your remote

To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, ﬁrst you need to program it to control your devices. There are four ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices:

• The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. It’s the easiest method, but it can sometimes take longer than some of the other programming methods.

• The Brand Code Search searches through the codes for select brands of devices. It’s not as easy as the auto code search, but it can be faster.

• The Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method.

• The Manual Code Search lets you manually go through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control.

Auto Code Search

The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the

codes for the device you’re trying to control. When you nd

the one that operates your device, you can stop the search and store that code.

TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—

the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers, cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD for DVD players, and VCR•AUX for VCRs or DVRs. To program

a device key for a different type of device, see the Changing a Key’s Device Type section.

To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto

Code Search, press the GO BACK key.

1. Manually turn on the device you

want to control.

3. Push the battery cover back into place.

Battery Precautions:

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.

• Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them in accordance with Local

and National Regulations.

Battery Saver

Your universal remote control saves battery power by automatically turning off if any key is pressed for more than 60 seconds. This saves your battery life should your remote get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such as between sofa cushions.

2. Press and hold the device key you want to program. While

you’re holding down the device key, use your other hand to press and hold the remote’s ON•OFF key at the same time.

3. Wait until the ON•OFF key comes on and stays on. Then

release both keys.

4. Point the remote directly at the

front panel of the device you want to control. Press PLAY on the remote and wait 5 seconds. The remote is testing a batch of 10 codes on your device.

Did your device turn off? YES: Go to step 5. NO: Press PLAY again. The remote tests the next batch of

10 codes.

Keep pressing PLAY every 5 seconds until your device

turns off.

5. When your device turns off, press

Code Li s ts

List a d e C ó di go s

the REVERSE key on the remote and wait at least 2 seconds. The remote tries the last of the previous ten codes.

Did your device turn on? YES: Press the STOP key. You’re

done! You’ve programmed this device key.

NO: Press REVERSE again. The remote tests the next

code in the batch.

Keep pressing REVERSE every 2 seconds until your device

turns back on. When it does, press STOP.

Note: If you accidentally press the REVERSE key after your device turns on, press the FORWARD key. Then, wait two seconds to see if your device turns off again.

Brand Code Search

The Brand Code Search goes through only the codes for one of the select brands listed in the accompanying code list. If your brand of device is listed, this search can be very quick and easy.

TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—

the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers, cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD for DVD players, and VCR•AUX for VCRs or DVRs. To program

a device key for a different type of device, see the Changing a Key’s Device Type section.

The ON•OFF key serves as an indicator light during

programming, giving you feedback at each stage of the process.

To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Brand

Code Search, press the GO BACK key.

NOTES

Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are currently programming the remote to control.

Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with the correct code for

maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum

Functionality” section below for more information.

During the Auto Code Search, the remote ignores

keypresses that aren’t part of the search.

The search times out after two minutes (the ON•OFF key

blinks four times and turns off, and the last programmed

code under that device key is retained).

The ON•OFF key blinks four times and turns off when the remote has gone through all the codes. The remote exits the Auto Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned off yet,

try a different search method.

Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality

1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If

some device features don’t work, go to next step to try a different code.

2. Repeat the Auto Code Search Method from the beginning.

When your device turns off, do not stop searching.

Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the PLAY key every 5 seconds until the unit turns back on.

3. Once the unit turns back on, press the REVERSE key on the remote every 2 seconds until your device turns off again.

When your device turns off again, press the STOP key.

4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, try another code.

1. Manually turn on the device you

want to control.

2. Find your device’s brand in the

Brand Code list section of the accompanying code list. Circle the number for your brand and keep the list handy.

3. Press and hold the device key you want to program. While

you’re holding down the device key, use your other hand

to press and hold the remote’s ON•OFF key at the same

time.

4. Wait until the ON•OFF key comes on and stays on. Then

release both keys.

5. Look at the number you circled for

your device’s brand code number. Press that number on the remote keypad.

6. Point the remote directly at the

front panel of the device you want

to control. Press ON•OFF on the

remote and wait 2 seconds. The remote is testing a single code for your device’s brand.

Did your device turn off?

YES: Press the STOP key to store the code. You’re done!

You’ve programmed this device key.

NO: Press ON•OFF again. The remote tests the next code

for your brand.

Keep pressing ON•OFF every 2 seconds until your device

turns off. When it does, press STOP.
