Congratulations on your purchase of a Zenith Universal Remote Control. Zenith Universal Remotes let you replace a broken or lost remote or combine more than one remote into one.
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 Zenith 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. The wireless receiver (included) receives these commands and converts them to regular Infrared (IR) commands. These IR commands are then emitted from the IR Extender (also included) 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 Zenith remote and we hope it will give you many years of service.
