Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Preparing the remote control for
use
Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many
other devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite
receivers, VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home
theater in a box), even if they are different brands.
If you have a Toshiba device:
Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate
most Toshiba devices (
-
page 26).
If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will
operate the other device (
-
page 28).
Installing the remote control
batteries
1
Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote
control.
2
Install two “AAA” size carbon zinc batteries. Match
the + and – symbols on the batteries to the symbols
on the battery compartment.
3
Slide the battery cover on to the remote control until
the lock snaps.
Caution:
Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Note:
•
Be sure to use AAA size carbon zinc batteries.
•
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.
•
Batteries should always be disposed of with the
environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
•
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the
operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries
with new ones.
•
When necessary to replace batteries in the remote
control, always replace both batteries with new ones.
Never mix battery types or use new and used batteries in
combination.
•
Always remove batteries from the remote control if they
are dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an
extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid
from leaking into the battery compartment.
Squeeze tab
and lift cover.
