How to Use the Remote After You've
Programmed It
Because this universal remote can control several different devices (TV, DVD, VCR, satellite
receiver, etc.), it uses operational modes triggered by the device buttons.
1. Press the appropriate device button (DVD, TV, VCR, SAT/CAB, AUDIO, AUX) to set the
remote to control the device.
2. Press ON•OFF to turn the device ON or OFF.
3. Use the remote buttons that apply to that device.
Notes: The remote control may not be compatible with all brands and models of devices.
If you keep pressing buttons and nothing happens, the remote is probably in the wrong
mode. You must press the device button that matches the device you want to operate (i.e.,
if you want to operate the VCR, press VCR on the remote control to put the remote in VCR
mode.)
