Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR
models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different
brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your
remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own
different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program
your remote control. (See "Programming the remote control for use
with a VCR or a cable TV converter" on page 13.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:
1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.
2. Install two "AA" size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on
the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the
lock snaps.
Using the remote control with a Toshiba VCR
or cable TV converter
To control a Toshiba VCR:
Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the VCR position. The
buttons shown at right will then control the VCR. The unshaded
buttons will operate the TV as usual.
To control a Toshiba cable TV converter:
Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position. The
shaded buttons in the top half of the illustration at right will
control the cable TV converter. The other buttons will operate the
TV as usual.
If you own a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter, you may be
able to program the TV remote control to control it. See
"Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or
cable TV converter" on page 13.

Note:
Your TV's remote control may not operate
certain features on your VCR, cable TV
converter, or other electronic device.
Refer to the owner's manuals for your other
devices to determine their available features.
If your TV's remote control does not operate a
specific feature on a device, use the remote
control that came with the device.
Caution:
• Dispose of batteries in a designated
disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a
fire.
• Do not mix battery types or combine used
batteries with new ones.
• If the batteries are dead or if you will not
use the remote control for a long time,
remove the batteries to prevent battery acid
from leaking into the battery compartment.
Note:
• Battery life expectancy is about one year
with normal use.
