Preparing the remote control for use

In addition to operating the TV, the remote control can operate most cable TV converters, satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players, regardless of their brand. The remote control is pre-programmed to operate most Toshiba satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players. To control a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not pre-programmed to operate), you must first program the remote control. See “Programming the remote control to operate your other devices” on the next page.

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.

2.Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.

Note:

The TV remote control may not operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter. Refer to the owner's manual supplied with your other devices to see which features may be available. Additionally, the remote control for this TV may not support certain features available on the original remote controls for your other devices, in which case it is suggested that you use the original remote control for the applicable device.

Caution:

• Never throw batteries into a fire.

Notes:

Be sure to use AAA size batteries.

Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.

Batteries should always be disposed of with the environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with new ones.

When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control, always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.

Always remove the batteries from the remote control if they are dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.
