Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

The remote control will operate your TV, most VCR models, and most cable TV converters together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you will need to program your remote control (see “Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or cable TV converter” on page 8).

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.

2.Install two “AA” size batteries. Match the + and – symbols on the batteries to the symbols on the battery compartment.

Note:

The remote control provided with your TV may or may not operate certain features on your VCR, cable TV converter, or other electronic components. Refer to the owner’s manuals provided with your other components to see which features are available. In addition, the other remote controls may have buttons not available on your TV’s remote control. If you would like to use those features or buttons, you may need to use the original remote controls for your other components.

Caution:

•Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a fire.

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

•Remove dead batteries immediately to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

•If you do not intend to use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
