Using your DVD recorder remote control with your TV set

Your DVD recorder remote control can transmit several commands to TV sets of different brands. The following keys will always operate the TV set:

-VOL+ increase TV volume

-VOL - decrease TV volume

-c mute TV

Some other keys normally operate the DVD recorder, but will operate the TV set when you keep the button on the side of the remote control pressed:

If your TV set does not respond to the remote control, you can re-programme your remote control. Below you will find a list of all available remote control codes for various TV brands. The following procedure re- programmes your remote control:

Look up the set-up code for your TV set in the code list below.

Press and hold the RETURN and SELECT key simultaneously for at least 3 seconds.

Release both keys.

Enter, within 30 seconds, the correct three-digit code with the digit keys 0-9.

If the selected code does not work with your TV set, or if the brand of your TV set is not in the list, try out the codes one after the other.

Alternative procedure:

-CH + next TV programme number

-CH - previous TV programme number

-0 - 9 choose TV channel

-B switch TV set to standby

Switch on your television set.

Press and hold the RETURN and SELECT key simultaneously for at least 3 seconds.

Release both keys.

Point the remote control to your TV set.

Press and hold the B STANDBY key.

Your TV set switches off when the right code is found.

When your TV set switches off, immediately release the B STANDBY key.

Your remote control is now re-programmed.

This complete procedure may take up to 2 minutes.
