USING THE REMOTE TO CONTROL A DEVICE

Once the remote has been programmed successfully, you are ready to use it to control your devices. To operate the device:

2.Press ON•OFF to turn the device ON or OFF.

MODES OF OPERATION

Because this universal remote can control several different components (DVD player, VCR, cable box, etc.) it uses operational modes triggered by the component buttons. For example, if you want the remote to control the TV, you would press the TV button to put the remote into TV mode before you could control the TV.

If you cannot locate your remote you can use the front panel of your TV to operate many of the TV’s features.
