8 Component  
Universal Remote  
Congratulations on your purchase of the eight-component universal remote. This universal remote  
controls up to eight 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 eight-component universal remote is easy to use, easy to program and gives you  
control at the touch of your fingertips.  
Note: The eight-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, VCR1, VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX—  
and your eight-component 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.

If this remote’s MENU key doesn’t access the menu system for your component, you’ll need to use the  
original remote to change menu settings.  
Note: This remote’s MENU key doesn’t support CABLE box menu systems and some VCR menu systems.  
Accessing a Menu System  
To access a menu system, follow these steps:  
1. Make sure your components are turned on and your  
TV is set to the component’s input.  
2. Press the component key on the remote (TV, DVD,  
DBS•SAT) for the desired menu screen.  
3. Press the MENU key.  
MENU•PROG  
4. The menu for the component you have chosen should  
be visible on your television.  
Highlighting and Selecting Menu Items  
To navigate on-screen menus, use the ARROW keys.  
MENU•PROG  
Note: For RCA, GE or PROSCAN TVs, press the MENU  
key to select the highlighted item. If menu items have  
numbers next to them, you can use the number keys to  
select an item. Additionally, the SELECT key can be used  
to select menu choices.  
SELECT  
ENTER  
• For users of RCA, GE and PROSCAN DBS products, older  
DBS models require that the INFO or MENU key on this  
remote be used to make program selections. Use the  
SELECT key for making program selections on newer  
RCA, GE and PROSCAN DBS models.  
• For Sony products, pressing the ENTER key while  
in Menu Mode returns you to the previous menu.  
• In some menu systems, you must press the ENTER  
key to select the highlighted item.  
• All functions in competitive models and brands of  
products may not be fully supported.  
• Because of the wide variety of menu formats,  
some experimenting may be required.  
This is an example of a DVD disc on-screen menu.  
English is the menu choice highlighted. Using this  
remote control, you would press the SELECT key  
to choose English.  
To highlight another language, press the DOWN  
ARROW key. (In the example above, the highlight  
would move to Español.)  
CLEAR  
Exiting a Menu System  
To exit the Menu Mode, press the CLEAR key. The remote  
reverts back to its normal operation.

Troubleshooting  
Problem: The remote can’t be programmed to operate your component.  
You may be too far away from the component or at a wrong angle. This remote uses IR (infrared)  
technology to communicate with components. The remote sends the code and the component’s  
IR sensor reads the code.  
Therefore, there must be an unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on the  
component. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at the component (VCR when  
programming the VCR1 or VCR2 key; DVD/CD when programming the DVD key; TV when  
programming the TV key; CABLE box when programming the CABLE key; SATELLITE receiver  
when programming the DBS•SAT key).  
• If you’ve entered all of the codes for your brand that are in the enclosed Code Lists and  
followed the instructions, try one of the Code Search methods (See Code Search on page 11).  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows which  
component you want to operate.  
To program the eight-component universal remote to operate a combination unit (TV/VCR or  
TV/DVD), first try the VCR or DVD codes for your brand. Some units, however, require that you  
program both the TV key (using the TV codes) and the VCR or DVD key (using the VCR or DVD  
codes) for full operation.  
To program the eight-component universal remote to operate a combination unit (VCR/DVD),  
program the VCR key using the VCR codes and then program the DVD key using the DVD codes.  
Problem: The indicator light does not light when you press a key.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows which  
component you want to operate.  
You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in (e.g., the RECORD key  
only works in VCR Mode).  
• Make sure the batteries are properly installed. (See Battery Installation on page 3).  
• Replace the batteries with two new AA batteries. Reprogramming may be required.  
Problem: The remote does not operate your component.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows which  
component you want to operate.  
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the component. Make sure to aim the remote  
at the IR sensor on the component.  
• Make sure the batteries are properly installed. (See Battery Installation on page 3).  
• Replace the batteries with two new AA batteries. Reprogramming may be required.  
• Reset the remote. Remove the batteries. Then press and hold the number 1 key on the remote  
for several seconds to reset the microprocessor inside the remote. Release the number 1 key,  
reinstall the batteries, and try the remote again. Reprogramming will be required.  
Problem: The remote is not performing commands properly.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component  
key (TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows  
which component you want to operate.  
• Make sure the component is “ready” (e.g., DVD player has disc loaded;  
VCR has tape loaded, etc.).  
You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in (e.g., the RECORD key  
only works in VCR Mode).  
• If you are trying to turn on an RCA, GE or PROSCAN component, press the component  
key (TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) instead of the ON•OFF key.  
• If operating a VCR to record, you must press the RECORD key twice.  
• If you’re trying to change channels, try pressing the ENTER key after entering the channel  
number as this is a requirement of certain models and brands.  
• There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of your  
component features (e.g., only turns a component on and off). Follow the steps provided for  
programming the remote (See Programming sections on pages 5-9). If the component can be  
turned on and off, make sure you press the CH+/CH- key to see if the component responds.  
If not, try the next code from the list.

Troubleshooting (continued)  
Problem: The VCR won’t record.  
• As a safety feature, you must press the RECORD key twice to begin recording.  
• Make sure the tape is properly loaded in the VCR.  
• Make sure the tape is not write-protected. If the safety tab is removed, the tape is write-protected  
and you cannot record onto that tape.  
Problem: The remote will not change channels.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows which component  
you want to operate.  
• Press the ENTER key after you enter a channel number.  
Problem: The component’s menu doesn’t appear on the TV screen.  
• The TV must be tuned to the Video Input that matches the manner in which you connected  
the component to the TV.  
For example, if you connected your DVD player to your TV by connecting audio/video cables  
(usually color-coded yellow, red and white) to the TV’s Input 1 jack, you must tune the TV to its  
Video 1 Input channel. Remember, different manufacturers label these jacks differently. Consult the  
instruction manual that came with the TV for more information.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR1 or VCR2, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO, AUX) so the remote knows which component  
you want to operate.  
• Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. If that’s the case, you need to use your original  
remote control to access menu functions for these components.

Code Search Methods  
If your component’s brand isn’t listed in the Code List or you have tried all of the codes for your brand and  
the remote does not operate your component, use one of the Code Search methods below—Manual Code  
Search or Auto Code Search. Both Code Search methods search all of the codes because your component’s  
code may be listed under another brand in the code list.  
Note: The Code Search method may take a long time because the remote searches all of the codes in its  
memory for the code which operates your component. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Code List,  
use the Direct Entry method described on pages 22-23.

Using On-screen Menus  
This remote cannot access every menu system of all models and brands of consumer electronics  
components. However, if you’ve successfully programmed the VCR•DVD key to operate a DVD player,  
you can access DVD disc menus with the MENU key.  
The MENU key will also access TV menu systems for most RCA, GE and PROSCAN TV's, as well as  
some other popular brands. Also, some RCA VCR menus are supported by this remote’s menu key. This  
remote also supports select satellite receiver menus.  
If this remote’s MENU key doesn’t access the menu system for your component, you’ll need to use the  
original remote to change menu settings.  
Note: This remote’s MENU key doesn’t support cable box menu systems and some VCR menu systems.  
Accessing a Menu System  
VCR•  
DVD  
TV  
1. Make sure your components are turned on and your  
TV is set to the component's input.  
2. Press the component key on the remote (TV,  
VCR•DVD or DBS•CABLE).  
3. Press the MENU key. The indicator light blinks  
continuously to indicate the remote is in Menu Mode  
and the component’s menu should appear on the TV  
screen.  
(BLINK)  
Highlighting and Selecting Menu Items  
To navigate On-screen Menus, use the VOL UP/DOWN and/or CHAN UP/DOWN keys.  
VOL UP/DOWN keys move the cursor (or the highlight) right/left. CHAN UP/DOWN keys move the  
cursor (or the highlight) up/down.  
For RCA, GE or PROSCAN products, press the MENU or ENTER key to select the highlighted item. If menu  
items have numbers next to them, you can use the number keys to select an item. Additionally, the ENTER key  
can be used to select menu choices.  
For Sony products, pressing the ENTER key while in Menu Mode returns you to the previous menu.  
This is an example of a DVD disc On-screen Menu.  
English is the menu choice highlighted. Using this  
remote control, you would press the ENTER key  
to select English.  
To highlight another language, you would press the  
CHAN DOWN key (In the example above, the highlight  
would move to Español).  
Notes:  
All functions in competitive models and brands of products may not be fully supported.  
The remote will automatically time out in Menu Mode and the indicator light will stop blinking after  
approximately 10 seconds of inactivity (no keys being pressed). For DVD menus, the Menu Mode will  
time out after approximately 15 seconds.  
Because of the wide variety of menu formats, some experimenting may be required.  
Exiting a Menu System  
To exit Menu Mode, press the corresponding component key on the remote (TV, VCR•DVD or  
DBS•CABLE). The indicator light goes out and the remote reverts to its normal mode of operation.

technology to communicate with components. The remote sends the code and the component’s IR  
sensor reads the code.  
Therefore, there must be an unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on the component. Move  
closer and make sure you point the remote at the component (VCR or DVD player when programming the  
VCR•DVD key; TV when programming the TV key; cable box or satellite receiver when you’re programming  
the DBS•CABLE key).  
• If you’ve entered all of the codes for your brand that are in the accompanying Code List and followed  
the instructions, try one of the Code Search methods (See Code Search on page 24)  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key (TV,  
VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
To program the 3 component universal remote to operate a combination unit (TV/VCR or TV/DVD),  
first try the VCR or DVD codes for your brand. Some units, however, require that you program both the  
TV (using the TV codes) and the VCR or DVD (using the VCR or DVD codes) for full operation.  
Problem: The indicator light does not light when you press a key.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key (TV,  
VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in (for example, REC only works in VCR  
Mode).  
• Make sure the batteries are properly installed.  
• Replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries. Reprogramming may be required.  
Problem: The remote does not operate your component.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the component. Make sure to aim the remote at the  
IR sensor on the component.  
• Make sure the batteries are properly installed (See Battery Installation on page 21).  
• Replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries. Reprogramming may be required.  
• Reset the remote. Remove the batteries, then press and hold the number 1 key on the remote for several  
seconds to reset the microprocessor inside the remote. Release the number 1 key, reinstall the batteries,  
and try the remote again. Reprogramming will be required.  
Problem: The remote is not performing commands properly.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
• Make sure component is “ready” (e.g., DVD player has disc loaded; VCR has tape loaded, etc.)  
You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in (for example, REC only works in  
VCR mode).  
• If you’re trying to turn on an RCA, GE or PROSCAN component, press the component key  
(TV, VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) instead of the ON•OFF key.  
• If operating a VCR to record, you must press the REC key two times.  
• If you’re trying to change channels, try pressing the ENTER key after entering the channel number as  
this is a requirement of certain models and brands.  
• There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of your component  
features (e.g., only turns a component on and off). Follow the steps provided for programming the remote  
(See Programming Sections on pages 22-23). If the component can be turned on and off, make sure you  
press the CHAN UP/DOWN key to see if the component responds. If not, try the next code from the list.  
Problem: The VCR won’t record.  
• As a safety feature, you must press the REC key twice to begin recording.  
• Make sure the tape is properly loaded in the VCR.  
• Make sure the tape is not write-protected. If the safety tab is removed the tape is write-protected and you  
cannot record onto that tape.  
Problem: The remote will not change channels.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
• Press the ENTER key after you enter a channel number.

Problem: The component’s menu doesn’t appear on the TV screen.  
• The TV must be tuned to the Video Input that matches the manner in which you connected the  
component to the TV.  
For example, if you connected your DVD player to your TV by connecting audio/video cables (usually  
color-coded yellow, red, and white) to the TV’s Input 1 jack, you must tune the TV to its Video Input 1  
channel. Remember, different manufacturers label these jacks differently. Consult the instruction manual  
that came  
with the TV for more information.  
You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key  
(TV, VCR•DVD, DBS•CABLE) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.  
• Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. If that’s  
the case, you’ll need to use your original remote control to access menu functions for these components.
