Eight-Component Universal Remote

Congratulations on your purchase of this advanced universal remote, which has the capacity to control up to eight components and makes juggling remote controls a thing of the past. This unique remote is incredibly easy to use because, once you press the key for the component you wish to control, only the key names needed to control that component light up.

You can program your RCA brand universal remote to operate most models of most brands of infrared, remote-controlled components manufactured after 1990. (See the enclosed Code Lists for a complete list of brands.) This remote is unusually versatile because it has two bonus AUX keys you can program to control two additional components.
