Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most cable TV
converters/satellite receivers, VCR and DVD player models together,
even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a
Toshiba satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player, your remote control is
already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of
cable TV converters/satellite receivers, VCRs and/or DVD players, you
first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming the
remote control for use with a cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR
or DVD player” on page 18.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:
1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.
2. Install two “AA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the
batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
3.Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.
To control a VCR:
Program the remote
control to recognize
the brand of your VCR
(see “Programming the
remote control for use
with a cable TV
converter/satellite
receiver, VCR or DVD
player” on page 18.)
The buttons shown at
right will then control
the VCR.
Set the TV • CBL/
SAT • VCR/DVD
selector to “VCR” first.
Note:
The TV remote control may or may not
operate your cable TV converter/satellite
receiver, VCR or DVD player. Refer to your
owner’s manuals supplied with the equipment
to see which features are available. In
addition, the original controllers may have
features not available on this remote control. If
you would like to continue to use these
features, you may want to use the original
remote control.

Caution:
Never throw batteries into fire.
Note:
• Always dispose of batteries in a designated
disposal location.
• Batteries should always be disposed of with
the environment in mind. Always dispose of
batteries in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations.
• Never mix battery types or use new and
used batteries in combination.
• When necessary to replace batteries in the
remote control, always replace both batteries
with new ones.

This will prevent battery acid from leaking into
the battery compartment.
