INTRODUCTION

You have made a great choice by buying this Philips universal remote control! It replaces up to eight separate remote controls and is pre-programmed to operate with almost any brand of TV, VCR, satellite tuner, cable decoder, CD-player, DVD- player, tuner and amplifier. The SBC RU880 can also control Philips Power Control System devices. It can even learn the codes of other remote control units that are not pre-programmed. Best of all, the SBC RU880 is quick to set up and easy to use, and with the green back-lighting it can even be used in dimly lit rooms! Here's how...

Remember to replace the batteries at least once a year. The RU880 has the unique feature of not losing the programmed or learned codes when the batteries are empty. You only have to set the clock again (see ‘Setting up the Clock’ section).

Just press the button (as indicated below) for the Philips device you wish to operate. If you want to operate other equipment brands you need to set up the SBC RU880 first

The remote has 8 operating modes: TV, VCR, satellite tuner (SAT/CBL), DVD- player, CD-player, AUDIO 1 & AUDIO 2 (for other equipment) and HOME (for operating the Philips Power Control System).
