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 17.)

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.

disposal area.
•Attention should be drawn to the environ-
mental aspects of battery disposal.

correctly, or if the operating range becomes
reduced, replace both batteries with new
ones.

using the remote control for a long time,
remove the batteries to prevent battery acid
