Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or a cable TV converter

This remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs. To use VCRs or cable converters other than Toshiba models, you must follow the steps below before you operate your remote control.

1.Refer to the “VCR code table” or “Cable TV converter code table” on pages 13-14 to find the number that corresponds to the brand name of your VCR or converter.

If more than one number is listed, try each one separately until you find the one that works.

2.If you are reprogramming the remote control to operate your:

•VCR, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the remote control to VCR.

•cable converter, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the remote control to CABLE.

3.Hold down the RECALL button while using the Channel Number buttons to enter the three-digit code number of your brand of VCR or converter.

4.Point the remote control at the VCR or converter and press POWER to test the code number.

If the VCR or converter turns on, you have entered the right number.

If the VCR or converter does not respond to the remote control, you may have entered the wrong number. Repeat steps 1-4 with another code number.

5.Reset the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to TV to control the TV.

For future reference, write down the code numbers you used:

Note:

•Each time you replace the batteries, you must reprogram the remote control.

•Some newer VCRs are capable of working on either of two remote codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”

If your VCR has this kind of switch, it may not respond to any of the code numbers for your VCR brand name. In this case, set the switch to the other position (VCR1 or

VCR2) and reprogram the remote control.
