Using the Remote Control

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 “AAA” 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.

Note:

The TV remote control may not operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter. Refer to the owner's manual supplied with the applicable equipment to see which features may be available. Additionally, the remote control for this TV may not support certain features available on the original remote controls for such additional equipment, in which case, it is suggested that you use the original remote control for the applicable device.

Caution:

Never throw batteries into a fire.

Notes:

Be sure to use “AAA” size batteries.

Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.

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

Do not mix different battery types or combine used batteries with new ones.

If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace both batteries with new ones.

If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.
