our TV remote is capable of working not
only your TV but also other infrared
remote (IR) controlled devices such as VCRs,
cable TV converter boxes, satellite receivers,
DVD players, and laser-disc players.
If you want to use your TV remote to operate
a VCR or other accessory device, you will
need to perform this initial check explained
in this section. You may also need to go to
the sections on the “Code-entry Method”
and the “Search Method” in the pages that
follow.
1
Press the VCR or ACC(essory) mode
button
on the TV remote for the
desired accessory device category.
NOTE:
Pressing the VCR mode button
allows access to product codes for
VCRs. Pressing the ACC(essory) mode
button allows access to the product
codes for cable TV converters, satellite
receivers, DVD players, and laser-disc
players.

Point the TV remote toward the
desired accessory device and press
the POWER button.
Does the remote turn the accessory
device on?
If yes
, then try other function buttons
on the TV remote. With a VCR, for
example, try the Play, Stop, and
Rewind buttons, for example. If they
also work the accessory device, then
the remote is ready and no further steps
are needed.
If not, do the following:
Look up a four-digit remote code
numbe
r on pages 45 and 46 for your
