Congratulations on your purchase of the RM24918
Universal Remote Control. The RM24918 is one
of the most easy to use remote controls available
today. With the RM24918, juggling multiple remote
controls is a thing of the past! Your RM24918
controls up to six devices, including the most
popular brands of TV, VCR, DVD, SAT, CBL, and
audio equipment.
The RM24918’s BACKLIGHT button lights up the
remote’s buttons, which stay lit until 5 seconds
after you stop pressing buttons.
Note: Some functions from your original remote
may not be controlled by this remote. Use the
original remote, if available, to control such
functions. Sometimes buttons other than described
in these instructions may actually perform the
function. For example, the CHAN and VOL
buttons might be used to navigate through menu
choices. We recommend you experiment with the
remote to identify if such situations pertain to your
equipment.

Setup
Battery Installation
1. On the back of the remote, push down on the
tab and lift the cover off.
2. Match the batteries to the + and - marks inside
the battery case, then insert 2 AAA Alkaline
batteries.
3. Press the battery cover back into place.
Battery Saver
Your remote automatically turns off if the buttons
are depressed more than 30 seconds. This will
save your batteries should your remote get stuck in
a place where the buttons remain depressed (e.g.,
between the sofa cushions).
Code Saver
You will have up to 10 minutes to change the
batteries in your remote without losing codes you
have programmed. However, do not press any
buttons until batteries are installed in the remote.
If buttons are pressed without batteries in the
remote, all codes will be lost.
Code Setup
The CODE SEARCH button is used to setup
the remote. You can either setup the remote
using the code for your brand of product, from
the code tables (on separate sheet), or you can
searchthroughthelibraryofcodesuntilyounda
code that works for your product. Please refer to
“Programming with Code Search” page 9 for more
information on using the code search feature to
learn how to search through the library of codes
for your products. NOTE: You can store any kind
of code under any mode (except TV). I.E. you can
store a VCR code under the CBL/SAT button, or
a DVD code under the VCR button, etc. However,
you can only store TV codes under the TV button.

this remote can only operate features that exist on your
product. E.G., your product must have PREV.CH ability
