Programming the HD DVD Remote to Operate
Your TV
This remote is already programmed to work with RCA TVs. If you have a TV that is another brand, the re-
mote can be programmed to control most brands of remote controllable TVs.
Entering Codes
To control a TV that is not an RCA TV, you’ll need to enter the specific codes for the brand of TV you have.
1. Turn on the TV to be programmed.
2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the TV on the following page.
3. Point the HD DVD Player’s remote at the TV.
4. Press and hold the TV CODE button on the remote.
5. Enter the code for your TV (from the list on the next page).
6. Release the TV CODE button, and then press TV ON/STANDBY to see if the TV responds to the
command.
7. If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your brand, until the TV responds
to the remote commands.
Notes: This remote may not be compatible with all brands and models of televisions.
Once you program this remote to operate you TV, it may not operate all the features on your TV. If you
want to use features on your TV that this remote doesn’t control, use the TV’s original remote.
When you replace the batteries in the remote, you will have to reprogram the remote.
Important!
You must continue pressing the TV CODE button while you enter the code.
For example, let’s say you have a Toshiba TV. To program the remote to operate the TV you would:
Press and hold the TV CODE button while you enter the first code listed for Toshiba in the Brand Code
Table.
Release the TV CODE button. Press TV ON/STANDBY to see if the TV responds. If it doesn’t, follow the
same steps, but enter the second code instead of the first.
Operating the TV with the Remote
Once you have programmed the remote, use the TV INPUT button to change the video input between the
TV and HD DVD player.
