You’ll use these buttons when you program the remote for other components.

Important Note: The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands of components. It also may not operate all functions of your component.

Tip

By default, the AUX button is programmed for an RCA VCR (VCR2). If auto tuning is set up, it will tune to VCR2 input channel.

Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components

The universal remote can be programmed to operate many brands of remote- controllable VCRs, audio components, DVD players, cable boxes, satellite receivers and other components. In addition to being programmed to operate your television, it’s already programmed to operate most RCA, GE, and Proscan components.

The AUX button can be programmed to operate most brands of an additional remote-controllable component: satellite receiver, cable box, DVD, VCR, and an audio component. A second and third RCA TV can be programmed to any component button, except the TV button. Go to page 52 for more information on programming the remote to another TV.

Note: The TV button can’t be programmed on this remote to control any component; it controls only this TV.
