Universal Remote Control (remote) is a true universal
remote, functioning as Þ ve remotes in one. As one example, you can use this remote to
operate your TV, VCR, DVD player, set-top, and receiver.
Important Information About Your Remote
Your remote is initially programmed to only operate your set-top. The Volume and Mute
keys will not work until a TV code is programmed into the remote. You must program the
remote to operate your TV, VCR, etc. See
Program the Remote to Control My Devices
to learn how to enter device codes and program your remote.
How Does a Universal Remote Control Work?
You tell the remote which type of device you want to operate using the Þ ve keys arched
across the top of the remote. These keys, known as mode keys , are labeled CBL , TV ,
VCR , DVD , and AUX . Each mode key is associated with a speci Þ c device. As an
example, if you want the remote to operate your TV, you simply press the TV key. Other
keys you press on the remote thereafter should operate your TV. Want to switch the
remote to operate a different device? Just press the mode key for the next device you
want to operate. In this guide, you will learn which types of devices you can control and
how to program the remote to control your speci
Þ c devices.
Note: Some remote keys may not operate in all modes. You can even program your
remote to assign speci
Þ c functions, such as channel control, to operate one device only.
You will learn more about these advanced functions later in this guide.
