Using the INPUT Button
Use the INPUT button to scroll through the available input channels and view components you have connected to
the TV.
1. Press TV to place the remote in TV mode. Make sure the component you want to view is turned ON.
2. Press INPUT to tune to an available input channel.
3. To return to the channel you were previously watching on TV, press CH+ or CH- button.
Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components
The universal remote can be programmed to operate most brands of remote controllable
components. The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE, and Proscan
components.
Also, the AUX button can be programmed to operate most brands of an additional remote-
controllable component.
Note: The TV button can’t be programmed on this remote.
Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed for your component, turn
the component ON. For example, to program the remote for a VCR, turn on the VCR. Point the
remote at the VCR, and press the VCR1 button. Then press ON•OFF or CH + (channel up) or CH –
(channel down) to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If the component does not
respond, the remote needs to be programmed.
Programming the Remote
There are two ways to program the remote control:
• automatic code search
• direct entry
Using Automatic Code Search
The following instructions can be used to program the remote to operate each of your
components. If you want to stop the automatic code search without programming any of your
components, press CLEAR until the indicator on the remote turns off.
1. Turn on the component you want to operate (VCR, DVD player, etc.)
2. Press and hold the component button you want to program (VCR1, DVD, etc.). While holding
the component button, press and hold ON•OFF until the indicator on the remote turns on,
then release both buttons.
3. Point the remote at the component. Press and release PLAY, then wait 5 seconds or until the
indicator on the remote stops flashing.
At this point the remote is searching for the correct code to program. If, after 5 seconds, the
component you want to operate does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the remote to
search the next set of codes.
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off or you have searched through all of
the codes. There are 20 total sets of codes. If the component does not turn off after pressing
PLAY 20 times, then the remote can’t be programmed to operate that component.
If the component you want to control does turn off:
1. Press and release REVERSE, then wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the device turns back
ON.
2. To finish, press and hold STOP until the indicator on the remote turns off.
