Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even if they are different brands.

If you have a Toshiba device:

Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices (- page 21).

If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate:

You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the other device (- pages 19–23).

Installing the remote control batteries

1 Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote control.

Squeeze tab and lift cover.

2 Install two “AAA” size batteries, making sure to match the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3 Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the tab snaps.

Caution: Never throw batteries into a fire.

Note:

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 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.

Remote control effective range

For optimum performance, aim the remote control directly at the TV and make sure there is no obstruction between the remote control and the TV.

Point remote control toward remote sensor on front of TV.
