Hitachi VT-M181A - Manual (Page 34)

Advanced Operations (Remote Control of TV) - 34 -
For example, if you have an RCA television, press TV and 0 at the same time. If this
button combination sends a signal that matches with your TV, the channel will change
on the TV, and you'll know the remote is set to control the television.
If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list
of button combinations one by one until you find one that does change your TV channel.
Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the number buttons. One of
them may work for you.
If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations
listed, it is likely that you will not be able to program this remote control for your TV.
