Universal Learning Remote with Touchscreen

Congratulations on your purchase of the RCU900 by

RCA. The RCU900 is one of the most sophisticated, yet easy to use, remote control units available today. With the RCU900, juggling multiple remote controls is a thing of the past!

Your RCU900 controls up to eight devices, including the most popular brands of TV, VCR, DVD, SAT/CBL, CD and audio equipment. The RCU900 has the ability to learn commands from your existing remotes, and the Smart Macro feature allows multiple commands to be executed with a single keypress. The RCU900 is easy to use, easy to program, and it gives you total control—at the touch of your fingertips!

Battery Information

Your RCU900 Universal Learning Remote with Touchscreen requires four AA alkaline batteries (sold separately).

Battery Installation

To install the batteries:

1.Turn the remote to the bottom side, pull on the tab and lift off the cover.

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

3.Slide the battery cover back into place.

Battery Saver

Your RCU900 saves battery power by automatically turning off if any button is pressed for more than 30 seconds. This saves your batteries should your remote get stuck in a place where the buttons remain depressed, such as under a book or between the sofa cushions.

Code Saver

With the RCU900, you don’t have to worry about losing programmed information when you change batteries. All programmed parameters are retained indefinitely in the event of battery replacement.

Power-on Default

When you replace batteries, your RCU900 remote always powers on in the TV Mode. If your TV, VCR and satellite receiver are RCA, ProScan or GE brands, you may not even need to set up the RCU900 to control them. In these instances, the remote should work as soon as the batteries are installed.
