Step 1: Install Batteries

Your RCRH02BR universal remote requires 2 new AAA alkaline batteries (sold separately).

To install the batteries:

1.Turn the unit over, remove screw and remove the battery door compartment cover.

2.Insert the batteries, matching the batteries to the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery case.

Battery Precautions:

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.

Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them in accordance with Local and National Regulations.

Step 2: Program the Remote

To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, first you need to program it to control your devices. There are three ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices:

The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. It’s the easiest method, but it can sometimes take longer than some of the other programming methods.

The Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method.

The Manual Code Search lets you manually go through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control.

Auto Code Search

The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. When you find the one that operates your device, you can stop the search and store that code.

1.Manually turn on the component you want to program the remote to

operate.

2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH key until the indicator light turns on.

3. Press the component key you want to program—TVor SAT·CBL·DTC. The indicator light blinks once and remains lit.

Important: Find the ENTER key on your remote (don’t press it yet). You will need to press this key quickly in step 5 below.

4. Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device you want to control. Press the POWER key and wait for the indicator light to blink. Each time the indicator light blinks, the remote is testing a code with the device. Make sure you keep the remote pointed at the device you want to operate.

5. As soon as the component turns off, press the ENTER key within 4 seconds.

Note: If you wait longer than 4 seconds to press ENTER, the remote goes to the next code—you will need to start the code search from step 1 again.

The indicator light flashes 8 times and turns off when the remote has searched all the codes. If this happens, try one of the other programming methods.

6. Test the remote with your component to make sure you can control most of the device’s functions. If some features don’t work, try the Direct Code Entry method.

Direct Code Entry

Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the code list at the end of this manual for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method.

1.Manually turn on the component you want to program the remote to

operate.

2.Find the four-digit code for your brand of TV, satellite receiver, cable box, or digital TV converter in the code list at the end of this manual.

3. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH key until the indicator light turns on.

4. Press the component key you want to program—TVor SAT·CBL·DTC. The indicator light blinks and then remains lit.

Note: “DTC” stands for Digital TV Converter.

5.Enter the four-digit code, using the numeric keypad. After the code is

entered, the indicator light turns off.

Note: If the indicator light blinks multiple times, you’ve entered an invalid code. Start from step 2 again.
