Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control

for use

Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other
devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers,
VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even
if they are different brands.
If you have a Toshiba device:
Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most
Toshiba devices (-page 26).
If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to
operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the
other device (-pages 24–28).

Installing the remote control

batteries

1Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote
control.
2Install two “AAA” size batteries, making sure to match
the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery
compartment.
3Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the
tab snaps.
Caution: Never throw batteries into a fire.
Note:
Be sure to use AAA size batteries.
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.
Batteries should always be disposed of with the
environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the
operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with
new ones.
When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control,
always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix
battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.
Always remove batteries from the remote control if they are
dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an
extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from
leaking into the battery compartment.

Remote control effective range

For optimum performance, aim the remote control directly at
the TV and make sure there is no obstruction between the
remote control and the TV.
