Congratulations on your purchase of Philips
Magnavox Universal Remote Control. Philips
Magnavox Universal Remotes let you replace a
broken or lost remote or combine more than one

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 Magnavox 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.

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
times out 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).
Power-On Default
The remote powers on in TV mode.
TV Volume/Mute Punch-Through
The TV Volume/Mute punch-through feature lets you
control the Volume and Mute function of your TV in any
mode programmed to be a VCR, DVD, Cable or SAT
device, without needing to change to TV mode. This
feature is also available if AUX mode is programmed to
control a second VCR, Cable or SAT device.
VCR Punch-Through
Punch-through to VCR mode is only allowed in TV, VCR
and Cable modes. SAT/DBS and CD/Audio are
dedicated to their modes.
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, or you can
search through the library of codes until you find a
code that works for your product.
Code Saver
Codes are stored in permanent memory while you are
changing batteries so you will not lose any codes
stored in the remote while you are changing batteries. If
you do want to delete any stored codes, see page 15.
NOTE: You can store any kind of code under any mode
(except TV). I.E. you can store a VCR code under the
CBL key, or a DVD code under the VCR key, etc. You
can store ANY kind of code under the AUX key.
However, you can only store TV codes under the TV
key.
