InstalhgReplacing Batter&
‘T:-
Operating
Your Remote
Before attempting to operate your
remote control, install the batteries as
shown below.
1. Turn the remote control face down
and press on the ribbed area of the
battery cover to slide it off.
2. Install four new alkaline “AAA”
batteries in the battery compartment
as shown. Match the + end of each
battery to the + marks in the battery
compartment.
l
The remote control produces an
invisible (infrared) beam that travels
in a straight line like the beam of a
flashlight. For this reason, when
operating the remote control, you
must point it directly at the remote
sensor on the component you want to
control. Objects between the remote
and the sensor can block the infrared
light beam.
l
Never place anything heavy on top of
the remote control or lay it upside-
down. This may accidentally depress
the buttons for a long time and
discharge the batteries.
l
Your remote control is designed to be
very rugged and will withstand a
considerable drop. If it receives an
extreme blow, the case is designed to
slightly separate at the seam rather
than fracture. If this happens, simply
squeeze the case where it separated
until it snaps back together. The
operation of the remote will probably
not be affected.
3. Replace the cover.
l
Replace the batteries when your
components fail to respond to the
remote control. You may have to
reprogram the code numbers when
you change batteries. Do not press
any buttons while changing batteries.

GETTING STARTED
1. After the batteries are installed,
your next step is to set up the codes
for each component you wish to
operate. (YOUR COMPONENT WILL
NOT OPERATE WITH THE REMOTE
UNTIL ITS CODE IS SET UP.)
2. In the space below, write the brands
and codes of each of your remote
controlled components.

Since there may be more than one code
listed for your brand of TV, VCR,
Cable Box or Audio Component, note
all the codes listed.
SETTING UP YOUR CODES
Set up each component using steps 48 below. Repeat the steps for each
component you intend to operate with
the remote control.
Press the component button on the
remote that matches the
component you want to set up
(TV, VCRl, VCR2, Cable or
Audio).
Press the ID button (The ID
button is located above the No. 3
key).
Within three seconds of pressing
the ID button, use the O-9 keypad
to enter the two digit code listed
for your brand.
7. Point the remote at the component
you want to operate and press the
ON/OFF button. If it turns on,
you are ready to set up your next
component. For easy reference,
circle the code in the chart on the
left that turned on your
component.
8. If the component does not turn on,
repeat steps 4-7 with the next
code listed for your brand.
Continue repeating until you find
a code that works.
Please Note:
If none of the codes
for your device work, try all
codes starting with 00. Since
some of the brands include
products made by a variety of
manufacturers, the code may be
listed under another brand name.

Additional Operating Notes
Controlling a Component’s
Function:
Press the correct component button to
tell the remote which component you
want to control. Then press the
desired function button. For example,
to turn the TV on: First hit the TV
button, then the ON/OFF button. Or
to operate the fast forward function of
a VCR, first hit the VCR button, then
the fast forward arrow button.
Number Buttons:
Press two numbers to select channel.
Press a “0” before a single-digit
channel number.
For some TV’s there will be a
2-second delay before the channel will
change.
For other brands of TV’s, you will
need to press the
PC/ENTER
button
after selecting the two number
buttons.
VCR On/Off Switch:
Some older VCR’s do not have an
ON/OFF
switch on their remote
controls and cannot be turned on and
off remotely. If you have this type of
VCR, you can test the code number
by pressing the
CHAN
button instead
of the
ON/OFF
button. Make sure the
VCR is alreadv turned on when vou
test the code number.
Controlling Two VCR’s
This remote can control
two VCR’s
independently as long as each VCR
operates in a different remote
transmitting code.
Some newer RCA VCR’s are capable
of working on either of two remote
codes. These VCR’s have either a
switch labeled
VCRIIVCR2
or an
on-screen display titled
REMOTE
VCRlIVCR2. You
can then set your
new VCR to respond to the remote’s
VCR2 button and your older VCR to
respond to the VCR1 button.
Some older RCA VCR’s have a
NORM/UNIFIED
switch that can also
respond to either the VCR1 or VCR2
button on the remote. Place this
switch in the
UNIFIED
position for
the VCR to respond to the VCR1 button or in the NORM position for the
VCR2 button. In the NORM position,
you must program the VCR2 button to
respond to code number 05.
If neither of your VCR’s has
switchable code capability, you may
still be able to use the
VCRlIVCR2
feature to control two VCR’s of the
same brand since many older VCR’s
use remote codes that are different
than newer VCR’s, You may want to
experiment to see what works with
your particular VCR’s,
