Introduction Connecting your TV Using the Remote Control Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or a cable TV converter The remote control provided with your TV is preprogrammed to operate Toshiba brand VCRs. You can program your TV remote control to operate other brands of VCRs and cable TV converters as well. To program your TV remote control to operate non-Toshiba VCRs and cable TV converters: 1. Refer to the VCR and cable TV converter code tables on pages 13 and 14 to find the corresponding code for your VCR or converter brand. If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find the one that works. 2. Turn on the device (VCR or converter) whose code you are programming. 3. Press the corresponding device button (VCR or CABLE) and the ENT button at the same time. The device button will light up, indicating that it is in the program mode. Perform steps 4 and 5 while the button is lighted (about 20 seconds). 4. Point the remote control toward the VCR or converter, and press the Channel Number buttons to enter the three-digit code for your VCR or converter brand. • If the correct code was entered, the VCR or converter will turn off. • If the VCR or converter does not turn off, repeat steps 1-4 using another code. When the correct code is entered, the lighted button will blink. 5. Press the corresponding device button (VCR or CABLE) to release the program mode. 6. Press TV to control the TV.
