Using the Remote Control

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

The remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba VCRs and cable TV converters. If you own a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate, you can program the remote control to recognize your device. See

“Programming the remote control” on page 15.

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 alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3.Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the lock snaps.

Note:

Your TV’s remote control may not operate certain features on your VCR, cable TV converter, or other electronic device.

Refer to the owner’s manuals for your other devices to determine their available features.

If your TV’s remote control does not operate a specific feature on a device, use the remote control that came with the device.

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.

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 use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Using the remote control with a VCR or a cable TV converter

To control a VCR:

If necessary, program the remote control to recognize your VCR (see “Programming the remote control” on page 15).

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the VCR position. The shaded buttons shown at right will then control the VCR. The unshaded buttons will operate the TV as usual.

To control a cable TV converter:

If necessary, program the remote control to recognize your converter (see “Programming the remote control” on page 15).

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position. The shaded buttons in the top portion of the illustration at right will control the cable TV converter.
