also comes pre-programmed to control some RCA components.

Notes:

The TV button can’t be programmed to control other components.

The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands of components. It also may not provide

complete functionality.

2. Point the remote at the component.

3. Press the corresponding component button (DVD button).

4. Press ON•OFF to see if the DVD responds. If it doesn’t, you need to program the remote to operate it.
