QUICK START

Cricket was designed specifically for children ages three
or older, with safety and simplicity in mind. Cricket
offers a simple means of control over what content your
children are exposed to when they watch television.

Basic setup is very simple, so you can give the remote to
the children in your household to begin using in just a
few minutes.

Step 1: Installing Batteries

Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the battery cover
from the back side of the remote control. Insert 2 AAA
batteries as shown below. Do not replace cover on
battery compartment until programming is complete.

Step 2: Set Remote to Programming Mode

Set the switch located in the battery compartment to the
middle position P to enter programming mode as
shown below.

Step 3: Set TV Control (Optional)

1. With your television ON, and the remote in

Programming mode, press the VOL + key. The
LED blinks twice.

2. Refer to the TV codes in the back of this
manual. Find your TV brand and enter the
first code for that brand by using the number
keys on the remote. When you press the
fourth number key, the LED on the remote
blinks twice to confirm a valid code.

To test the new TV code:

3. Slide the switch on the back of the remote to
CHILD mode.

4. Point the remote at the TV and press MUTE. If
the TV is muted, the code is correct. If the TV
does not mute, you must try the next code for
your brand.

5. Set the switch back to P for programming.

6. If MUTE did not work, repeat the SET TV
Control process until the TV responds to

MUTE.

NOTE: The remote must be in CHILD or ADULT mode

to test the code

7. TV control can also be set by using a simple
code search as shown on page 9.

Step 4: Programming the STAR and MOON buttons
(optional)

Cricket comes pre-programmed with 8 favorite kids
channels assigned to keys 3 through 0. Two additional
favorite channels can be added to the STAR(1) and
MOON(2) keys on the remote.

1. While in Programming mode, press and hold
the STAR(1) button. Release the key when the
LED blinks twice.

2. Press the digits for the channel number for the

favorite channel that you wish to save to the

STAR(1) button.
