Using the Remote Control
Do You Need to Program the Remote?
To determine whether the remote control needs to be programmed to operate your TV, turn the
TV on, point the remote control at it, then press the remote control’s TV button (this puts the
remote control into TV-operating mode and should automatically turn on most RCA, GE, and
Proscan TVs). Press the remote control’s ON•OFF button to see if the TV responds to the
command. If not, the remote control needs to be programmed to control that model TV.
Programming the Remote Control
To program your remote control, you must use the code list on the next page. Look up the
brand name of your TV and the code(s) that brand uses.
Notes: This remote control may not operate all models of the brands shown in the code list.
Note the difference between the TV and VCR on-screen displays to know which component
the remote control is operating.
1. Turn on the TV.
2. Find your TV brand and code number(s) in the code list.
3. Press and hold the TV button on the remote control.
4. Enter the code from the code list.
5. Release the TV button, then press the CHAN up or down button. If the TV responds to the
remote control’s command, the remote is programmed.
6. If the TV does not respond, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your TV’s
brand.
Operating the TV
After you set up the remote control, see which buttons operate your TV:
1. Point the remote control at the TV, and press the TV button. If the TV does not turn on,
press the TV button and then press the ON •OFF button.
2. You may want to experiment to see which buttons operate your TV. Try pressing buttons,
such as VOL and MUTE. See the button descriptions in this chapter for details about what
each remote control button does.
