This universal remote controls up to six electronic components and makes juggling remote controls a thing of the past. You can program this RCA universal remote to operate most models of most brands of infrared, remote-controlled components manufactured after 1990. (See enclosed Code List for a complete list of brands.) The six-component universal remote is easy to use, easy to program and gives you control at the touch of your fingertips. Note: The six-component universal remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE and PROSCAN branded TVs, VCRs, DVD players and SATELLITE receivers (DBS). Just press the corresponding component key-TV, VCR, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO-and your sixcomponent universal remote is ready to go! Battery Information and Installation Your universal remote requires two new AA alkaline batteries (batteries may or may not be included, depending on the model). To install the batteries: 1. Remove the battery compartment cover. 2. Insert the batteries, matching the batteries to the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery case. 3. Replace the battery cover. Note: Reprogramming may be required after batteries are replaced. Key Descriptions Indicator Light-flashes when a valid key is pressed to indicate the remote is working. Status of this light is important when you are programming the remote. Component Keys (TV, VCR, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO)- selects the component you want the remote to operate. For example, after you've programmed the remote to operate your TV, you must press the TV key first to put the remote in TV Mode. While in TV Mode, the CHAN keys change the channel on the TV, the VOL keys adjust the TV's volume, etc. Transport Keys-REVERSE, PLAY, FORWARD, STOP, PAUSE, RECORD-operate the same as your original VCR or DVD remote control, although key labels may vary (REWIND, FAST FORWARD). Backlight Key (select models only)-turns backlighting on and off. Backlighting remains on for approximately six seconds after the last keypress to conserve battery life. 3
