Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 14.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Slide the battery cover off of the back of the remote control.

2.Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3.Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the lock snaps.

Note:

Your TV’s remote control may or may not operate your VCR or cable TV converter.

Refer to the owner’s manuals supplied with your other equipment to see which features are available. In addition, the original controllers may have features not available on this remote control. If you would like to continue to use these features, you may want to use the original remote control.

Caution:

Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a fire.

Do not mix battery types or combine used batteries with new ones.

Remove dead batteries immediately to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

If you do not intend to use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
