SETTING THE TV REMOTE TO WORK ACCESSORY DEVICES

Your TV remote is capable of work- ing not only your TV but also

infrared remote (IR) controlled devices such as VCRs, cable TV con- verter boxes, satellite receivers, DVD players, and laser disc players.

If you want to use your TV remote to operate a VCR or other accessory device, you will need to perform this initial check explained in this sec- tion. You may also need to go to the sections on the “Direct Access Method” and the “Search Method” in the pages that follow.

NOTE: pressing the ACC(essory) mode button allows access to the product codes for cable TV convert- ers, DVD players, satellite receivers, and laser disc players.

Does the remote turn the accessory device on?

If yes, and try other function but- tons on the TV remote. If they also work the accessory device, then the remote is ready and no further steps are needed.

If no, do the following:

Look up a three-digit remote code number on page 47 or 48 for your brand of accessory device. Then go through the simple Direct Access Method steps shown on page 45.
