To use this universal remote with your home entertainment
system, first you need to program it to control your devices.
There are four ways you can program the universal remote to
operate your devices:
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device
key is programmed with the correct code for maximum
functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different
code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality”
section below for more information.
Keep pressing PLAY every 5 seconds until your device turns
off.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—
the TV is preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite
receivers, cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD•VCR
for DVD players, and DVR•AUX for DVRs. To program a
device key for a different type of device, see the Changing a
Key’s Device Type section.

NOTES
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try
a different code.
Tip: This remote is already programmed to operate
most RCA-branded TVs, VCRs, DVD players and satellite
receivers. Just press the corresponding key—DVD•VCR
for a DVD player, TV for a television, SAT•CBL•DTC for a
satellite receiver, DVR•AUX for a DVR.

Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep
the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are
currently programming the remote to control.
2. Repeat the Brand Code Search from the beginning. When
the device turns off for the first time, don’t press the STOP
key, which would store the same code. Instead, with the
unit now off, continue to press the POWER key repeatedly
until the unit turns back on.
NO, it blinked four times and turned off: You have
either entered a code number that is not in the code lists
or missed a step in the code entry procedure. Try step 3

To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto
Code Search, press the CLEAR key.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control
a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has
been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions,
programming is complete. If the code stored does not give
maximum functionality, try another code.
Your universal remote requires two AAA alkaline batteries (not
included).
If your brand isn’t listed in the code list, use one of the Code
Search methods to program the remote control. (Refer to the
Auto and Manual Code Search methods.)
The search times out after two minutes (the indicator blinks
four times and turns off, and the last programmed code
under that device key is retained).

Battery Precautions:
6. Keep the remote pointed directly
at the front panel of the device you
want to control. Press POWER on
the remote and wait 2 seconds. The
remote is testing a single code for
your device’s brand.

key every 5 seconds until the unit turns back on.
Manual Code Search
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
The Manual Code Search lets you go one-by-one through all the
codes for the device you’re trying to control. When you find the
one that operates your device, you can stop the search and store
that code.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or
rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
• Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly
and recycle or dispose of them in accordance with Local
and National Regulations.
3. Once the unit turns back on, press the REVERSE key on the
remote every 2 seconds until your device turns off again.
When your device turns off again, press the STOP key.

want to control.
TIPS: The Manual Code Search method may take a long time
because the remote searches through all of the codes in
its memory one-by-one. If your brand is listed in the Brand
Codes or the Code Lists, first try the Brand Code Search or
the Direct Code Entry method.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control
a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has
been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions,
programming is complete. If the code stored does not give
maximum functionality, try another code.

4. Keep the remote pointed directly
at the front panel of the device
you want to control. Press
NO: Press POWER again. The remote tests the next code
for your brand.
Your universal remote control saves battery power by
automatically turning off if any key is pressed for more than
60 seconds. This saves your battery life should your remote
get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such as
between sofa cushions.
2. Find the Code List that came with
the remote. Locate the section for
the type of device you’re trying to
program, and find your brand in
that section. Circle the codes for
your brand and keep them handy.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is
preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers,
cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD•VCR for DVD
players, and DVR•AUX for DVRs. To program a device key for
a different type of device, see the Changing a Key’s Device
Type section.
Keep pressing POWER every 2 seconds until your device
turns off. When it does, press STOP.
PLAY on the remote and wait 5
seconds. The remote is testing a
batch of 10 codes on your device.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Manual
Code Search, press the CLEAR key.
