Battery Installation
and Information
Your universal remote requires two AA Alkaline batteries (batteries may or may not
be included, depending on model).
To install the batteries:
Your universal remote control saves battery power by automatically turning off if
any key is pressed for more than 60 seconds. This saves your batteries should your
remote get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such as between sofa
cushions.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert the batteries, matching the
batteries to the (+) and (-) marks inside
the battery compartment.
3. Press and push the battery cover back
into place.
Note:
Reprogramming may be required after batteries
are replaced.
Congratulations on your purchase of this advanced universal remote, which has the
capacity to control up to eight components and makes juggling remote controls a
thing of the past. This unique remote is incredibly easy to use because, once you
press the key for the component you wish to control, only the key names needed to
control that component light up.
You can program your RCA brand universal remote to operate most models of most
brands of infrared, remote-controlled components manufactured after 1990. (See the
enclosed Code Lists for a complete list of brands.) This remote is unusually versatile
because it has two bonus
AUX
keys you can program to control two additional
components. The eight-component universal remote is easy to use, easy to program
and gives you control at the touch of your fingertips.
The eight-component universal remote is already programmed to operate
most RCA, GE and PROSCAN branded TVs, VCRs, DVD players and satellite
receivers. Just press the corresponding key—
DVD
key for a
DVD
player;
TV
key for
a television;
SAT·CBL
for a satellite receiver or a cable box, etc.

SKIP, MENU, INFO, CLEAR, VOL, CHAN, VOL/
CHAN UP
arrow,

. Every key that has a function in
the mode you are in lights up.
The NaviLight illumination path remains lit for three seconds from the last keypress.
You can toggle the NaviLight illumination path on and off at any time by pressing
the

key or the desired component key.
