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

This remote control operates the common features of most but not all models and brands of IR Infrared Controlled Video Equipment.

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.
