The universal remote control can be programmed to operate most brands of
remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The remote is
already programmed to operate most RCA, GE and Proscan TVs, VCRs, DVD
players, laserdisc players and satellite receivers.

Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote

To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn a
component ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press the
VCR2 button. Then press ON•OFF or channel up or channel down to see if
the VCR responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be
programmed.

How to Program the Remote

There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code search and
direct entry. Instructions for both ways follow.
Using Automatic Code Search
1. Turn on the component you want the remote to operate (VCR, DVD Player,
etc.)
2. Press and hold the component button on the remote control that
corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate (VCR2,
DVD, etc.). While you hold down the component button, press and hold
ON•OFF (when the red light on the remote turns on, release both buttons).
3. Press PLAY (the red light on the remote, located below the ON•OFF button,
starts flashing).
The remote is searching the first set of component codes (there are 20 sets
of codes). If the component you want to operate doesn't turn off
automatically after 5 seconds, press PLAY again (the red light starts flashing
again as the remote searches through the next set of codes).
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off.
Note: If the component doesn't turn off after you've pressed the PLAY
button 20 times, the component can't be programmed.
4. Press REVERSE, wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns
back on.
5. To finish, press and hold the STOP button until the red light on the remote
turns off.
