Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of Philips Universal Remote Control. Philips Universal Remotes let you replace a broken or lost remote or combine more than one remote into one. In addition, this remote is equipped with a command learning feature which lets the remote learn commands from your original equipment remote control!

This remote control operates the common features of most but not all models and brands of IR Infrared Controlled Video Equipment. This remote may provide functions that are not available on your equipment. Some functions of your particular equipment (e.g. menu functions) may not be controlled by this remote. In such cases, use the original remote control for your equipment. Please use this manual to become familiar with your Philips Universal Remote. After you are familiar with your remote the first thing you need to do is to install batteries and setup your remote for your particular product and brand.

We focused on making this remote consumer friendly. This remote has dedicated DVD and DVR buttons. We have highlighted the DVD buttons in blue for easy referencing. We have also highlighted the DVR (Tivo/ Replay) buttons in green for easy referencing on the remote keypad. In addition to DVD and DVR, we have included Satellite functionality by adding the Controls,

MENU,GUIDE,PAGEUP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT, ENTER, QUIT/CLEAR, INFO, SELECT and OK buttons right on the keypad. If there is a function on one of your original remotes that isn’t on this remote, we’ve added the easy learning feature that allows you to “learn” favorite functions from your original remote right on to this one.

We’ve even taken this one step further and added three Macro functions. A Macro allows you to program a series of steps in one keystroke. For example, with one keystroke, you can program your remote to turn on all your components.

Thank you for buying a Philips remote and we hope it will give you many years of service.
