Congratulations on your purchase of a Philips
Universal Remote Control. Philips Universal
Remotes let you replace a broken or lost remote or
combine more than one remote into one. In
addition, this remote is equipped with a command
learning feature which lets the remote learn
commands from your original equipment remote
control!

This remote control operates the common features
of most but not all models and brands of IR
Infrared Controlled Video Equipment. This remote
may provide functions that are not available on
your equipment. Some functions of your particular
equipment (e.g. menu functions) may not be
controlled by this remote. In such cases, use the
original remote control for your equipment. Please
use this manual to become familiar with your
Philips Universal Remote. After you are familiar
with your remote the first thing you need to do is to
install batteries and setup your remote for your
particular product and brand.

The remote also transmits wireless Radio Fre­quency (RF) commands to the video sender. The
video sender receives these commands and
converts them to regular Infrared (IR) commands.
These IR commands are then emitted from an IR
Extender cable to control your A/V components.
This lets you control your A/V components from
ANY room in your home - you don’t need to aim
the remote at your component!

Thank you for buying a Philips remote and we hope
it will give you many years of service.
