APPENDIX 6 INSTRUCTION GUIDE FOR PROGRAMMING REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control can be compatible with various brands of TV by setting their control codes. The TOSHIBA code has initially been set to control TOSHIBA TVs. Refer to the four methods below for programming your remote control and use the one that best suits your setup. (Note: Every change of batteries in the remote control unit will result in a reset to the default Toshiba code of 138)
Due to the great variety of TV systems, some makes and models are not compatible with your recorder’s remote control. If you reach the end of the available codes without finding a code that works with your device, you will need to use your TV system’s remote control to turn it on and off, and control the volume. Even if the code is found, there is a possibility that not all the buttons on your recorder’s remote control will work with your TV.
