Arrows on the
Highlight Bar
When programmed, the POWER,
INPUT, VOLUME, and MUTE buttons on
the TiVo remote can control your TV or
AV receiver.
Some TiVo DVR remote controls are an
RF remote. This means that the remote
can control your TiVo box even if the
box is not in direct line of sight with the
remote (for instance, if it is behind a
cabinet door).
If you have trouble using the remote in
RF mode, or if you purchase additional
remotes, you may need to “pair” the
remote to your DVR before using it.
To program or pair your TiVo remote,
press the TiVo button to go to the TiVo
Central
® screen and select ‘Messages &
Settings,’ then ‘Settings,’ then ‘Remote,
CableCARD, & Devices,’ then ‘Remote
Control Setup.’ Follow the easy
on-screen instructions.
