Battery Installation
and Information
Your universal remote requires two AA Alkaline batteries
(batteries may or may not be included, depending on model).
To install the batteries:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert the batteries, matching the
batteries to the (+) and (-) marks inside
the battery compartment.
3. Press and push the battery cover back
into place.
Note:
Reprogramming may be
required after batteries are replaced.
Your universal remote control saves battery power by automatically
turning off if any key is pressed for more than 60 seconds. This
saves your batteries should your remote get stuck in a place
where the keys remain depressed, such as between sofa cushions.

Battery Saver
Backlight illumination (available on select
models only) enables you to see the remote
control keys better in the dark. Backlight
illumination is toggled on or off with
successive keypresses of the
BACKLIGHT
key. When toggled on, the backlighting
remains on as long as keys are being pressed.
The backlighting turns off six seconds after
the last keypress. Once the backlight time
has expired, any keypress will reactivate
backlighting. If the backlight illumination is
on, and the
BACKLIGHT
key is pressed, the
backlight turns off.
