Using the Remote Control

PROGRAMMING THE TV REMOTE TO WORK ACCESSORY DEVICES

Your TV remote is capable of working not only your TV but also other infrared

remote (IR) controlled devices such as VCRs, cable TV converter boxes, satellite receivers, DVD players, and laser-disc players.

If you want to use your TV remote to oper- ate a VCR or other accessory device, you will need to perform this initial check explained in this section. You may also need to go to the sections on the “Code-entry Method” and the “Search Method” in the pages that follow.

1 Press the VCR or ACC(essory) mode button on the TV remote for the desired accessory device category.

NOTE: Pressing the VCR mode button allows access to product codes for VCRs. Pressing the ACC(essory) mode button allows access to the product codes for cable TV converters, satellite receivers, DVD players, and laser-disc players.

2 Point the TV remote toward the desired accessory device and press the POWER button.

Does the remote turn the accessory device on?

If yes, and try other function but- tons on the TV remote. With a VCR, for example, try the Play, Stop, and Rewind buttons, for example. (See page 23 for information on how the remote buttons correspond with acces- sory device functions.) If they also work the accessory device, then the remote is ready and no further steps are needed.

If not, do the following:

Look up a four-digit remote code number on pages 21 or 22 for your brand of accessory device. Then go through the simple steps for entering a four-digit code as explained on

page 19.
