REMOTE CONTROL OF THE TV

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL OF THE TV

1 Turn on the TV

Turn on the TV (any channel is okay).

2

Program the remote control

Aim the VCR's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the TV button (not the VCR/TV button) while you press the
number corresponding to your brand of television as shown in the chart.

For example;

If you have an RCA television, press the 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.

NOTES:

• 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.
