Other Devices

The universal remote can be programmed to operate many brands of remote-controllable VCRs,

audio devices, DVD players, cable boxes, satellite receivers and other devices. In addition to

being programmed to operate your television, it’s already programmed to operate some

RCA devices.

Notes:

The TV button can’t be programmed on this remote to control any device; it controls only this TV.

The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands of devices. It also may not

operate all functions of your device.

Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote

To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed to operate one of the

devices connected to your TV, such as a DVD player, do the following:

1. Turn on the device (in this example, a DVD player).

2. Point the remote at the device.

3. Press the corresponding device button (in this example, DVD player).

4. Press ON•OFF to see if the DVD responds. If the DVD doesn’t respond, you need to

program the remote to operate it.
