Chapter 2: Using the remote control Using the remote control to operate your other devices Your TV remote control has one dedicated TV mode and three programmable multi-brand modes: CABLE/SAT, DVD, and VCR/PVR. The default device modes and programmable device modes are listed below. Note: The TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices. To operate a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate, you will need to program the remote control. See "Programming the remote control to operate your other devices" (at right).

Note: After programming the remote control, make sure all necessary keys on the TV remote control (in addition to p) operate your device. If some keys are not operational, repeat the device code setup using another code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your device, use the device's original remote control. (continued) 15
