to operate your television, it’s already programmed to operate some
RCA devices.

control any device; it controls only this TV.
The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands
of devices. It also may not operate all functions of your device.

Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote

2. Point the remote at the device.
3. Press the corresponding device button (in this example, VCR).
4. Press ON•OFF to see if the VCR responds. If the VCR doesn’t
