Customizing Your Remote Control

Your TV comes equipped with a universal remote control. In addition to controlling the TV, the universal remote control can also operate a VCR, Cable box, DVD, and some Samsung Set-top boxes (even if your VCR, Cable box and DVD are made by manufacturers other than Samsung).

Setting Up Your Remote Control to Operate Your VCR (Cable box or DVD player)

1

Turn off your VCR (Cable box or DVD player).

2

Press the MODE button to switch the remote control to the VCR (CABLE or DVD) mode.

3

On your Samsung remote control, press the SET button.

4

Enter 3 digits of the VCR (Cable box or DVD player) code listed on next page for your brand of VCR (Cable box or DVD player).

5

Press the POWER button on the remote control. Your VCR (Cable box or DVD player) should turn on. If your VCR (Cable box or DVD player) turns on, your remote control is now set correctly.

œThe remote control has five modes: TV, STB, VCR, CABLE, and DVD.

œMake sure you enter 3 digits of the code, even if the first digit is a “0”. (If more than one code is listed, try the first one.)

œIf your VCR (Cable box or DVD player) does not turn on, repeat steps 2, 3, and 4, but try one of the other codes listed for the brand of your particular VCR (Cable box or DVD player).

6

Once your remote control is set up, press the MODE button any time you want to use the remote to operate your VCR (Cable box or DVD player).

•When your remote is in the TV mode, the VCR (or DVD player) control buttons (REW, STOP, PLAY/PAUSE, and FF) will still operate your VCR (or DVD player).

•When your remote control is in the STB, VCR, CABLE, or DVD mode, the volume buttons still control your TV’s volume.
