A Quick Look at the
Keys
Your Radio Shack 5-In-One Learning Light-Up Remote controls the most-used functions on your TV, VCR, ca­ble/SAT/DSS converter, DVD player, and an auxiliary device.
After you set up the remote control, its command keys will work like the keys on your original remote controls. For example, depending on the device you se lect (TV, VCR, CBL/SAT, DVD, or AUX)
POWER
like the POWER ON/OFF key on the remote control for your original TV, VCR, cable/SAT/DSS, DVD player, or auxiliary device.

Preparation
After installing the batteries (not included), you can im­mediately use the remote (with its factory-programmed settings) to control an RCA TV, VCR, and DIRECTV re­ceiver, as well as a Pioneer DVD player and auxiliary de­vice. To control other brands, you must perform some simple programming to overwrite the default parameters.
For best results, read and perform all remaining instruc­tions. Also, keep these instructions for future reference.
If you experience any difficulties programming your re­mote, call customer service at 888-631-9859.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
Your remote requires four AAA batteries (not supplied) for power. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries (sta8(ed t˝[(.8(3ı)-6.veri)-6.7(g ue).)]TJı˝-1 -2.22 TDı˝-0.0003 Tcı˝0.0423 Twı˝[(•)-650.3(A)0.1(lways remove old )6.7(3ı)weak )6.7(batteries. Batter)can

SETTING UP YOUR REMOTE
To control devices other than the default brands (for ex­ample, an RCA TV, VCR, and DIRECTV receiver, a Pi o­neer DVD player and auxiliary device), perform the following steps. If you use the default brand devices, skip this section.
1. Refer to “Manufacturers’ Codes” on Page 23 and write down the code(s) for the brand of each device you want to program on the supplied label.
