Chapter 3: Using The Remote Control; Preparing The Remote Control For Use; Installing The Remote Control Batteries - Toshiba 2XF550U Owner's Manual

Preparing the remote control
for use
Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other
devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers,
VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even
if they are different brands.
If you have a Toshiba device:
Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most
Toshiba devices (- page 24).
If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to
operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the
other device (- pages 22–32).

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Installing the remote control
batteries
1
Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.
2
Install two "AA" size alkaline batteries. Match the + and
– symbols on the batteries to the symbols on the battery
compartment.
3
Slide the battery cover on to the remote control until the
lock snaps.
Caution: Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Note:
• Be sure to use AA size alkaline batteries.
• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.
• Batteries should always be disposed of with the
environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
• If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the
operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with
new ones.
• When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control,
always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix
battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.
• Always remove batteries from the remote control if they are
dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an
extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from
leaking into the battery compartment.
