HELPFUL HINT:
Write down the compatible code for your cable box and/or your VCR somewhere other than the owner’s manual (for instance, inside the battery door), to prevent problems that may occur if the owner’s manual is misplaced. Each time the batteries are replaced, you will need to reset the remote to work with your cable box and/or your VCR.
