This universal remote control (4 in 1) is compatible with the majority of television sets, DVD
players and video recorders, as well as digital boxes such as satellite or cable receivers,
DVBT receivers (Digital Video Broadcast Terrestrial), ADSL decoders, and so on.
This remote control was programmed in the factory, so that you can use it to control most
of the sets of the THOMSON group’s make. For this reason, we recommend that prior to
attempting to programme the remote control, you try it out by means of one of the methods
described in this user manual. However, fi rst of all, please activate the remote control by
removing the 2 protective tabs from the 2 CR 2032 batteries.
Please keep this guide along with the code list (provided separately), so that you can subse-
quently programme your remote control for use with other sets.

1:

On/Standby or Standby only, depending

on the equipment being used.

2 Mode keys: Select the device to control

(TV, DVD, …).

3 P+, P-: Channel Up and Channel Down buttons.
4 V-, V+: Increases (+) or decreases (-) the volume

of the selected device.

5 OK: Confi rms a selection.

These keys have the same functions as

those of your original remote and are also

used to enter the codes for different

products.

15:

Teletext mix (Teletext inlay on TV picture).

16 Setup: Allows you to program your remote before

the

fi rst use. It also allows you to access to

secondary functions of certain A/V

appliances (Shift). Press and release the

„Setup“ key followed by the function key

you

want.

depending on the make.

The keys

Testing the remote control before

you programme it

1. Turn on the product you want to control.
2. Press the Mode key that corresponds to the type of
product you want to control:
TV: television set, DVD: DVD player, SAT: satellite
receiver,

AUX

: any other equipment.

3. Direct the remote control towards your equipment
and try to switch it off by simply pressing the
key

G

. If the device does not turn off, you must

program the remote control using one of the
methods A, B, C or D described hereafter.

Note 1: Except for the TV key, the DVD, SAT and
AUX

mode keys can be programmed to control

a device other than that indicated on the key. It is
therefore possible, for example, to allocate SAT
mode to the DVD key. You must enter the code
corresponding to the manufacturer and the device by
using one of the methods indicated in this manual.
However, method D (automatic search for a code)
will greatly simplify the task for you. In this case it
is only necessary to enter a code from the list that

corresponds to the type of device, for example: 0603
for a Thomson satellite receiver) and then to run the
automatic search procedure. The remote control will
then test all the codes automatically until it fi nds those
that control the receiver.

Note 2: To control 2 devices of the same type and the
same brand (2 Thomson AUXs, 2 Thomson satellite
receivers, ...) ensure fi rst that these two devices are not
set to react to the same sub code, they will require one
sub code for one and a different sub code for the other
(i.e., codes A and B with Thomson devices). Once you
have checked this, successively program 2 separate
mode keys using method D.

Programming

the remote control

Method A – Fast programming

with 1-digit subcode

Before you start programming, you must fi nd the
subcode

of the set to be controlled. Entering a

subcode lets the remote control test a predefi ned list of
codes. Refer to the list provided with these instructions,
page I of the subcodes.

1. Switch on the set you want to control.
2. Hold down the SETUP key until the key that

corresponds to the last mode you selected blinks
and then remains lit (the indicator light remains on
for a few seconds to give you the time to proceed
with the following steps. The indicator lamp fl ashes
to signal that this time is almost up, and then
goes off).

3. Press the key that corresponds to the type of

equipment you want to control:

TV: television set, DVD: DVD player, SAT: satellite

receiver, cable, DVBT, ADSL, AUX: any other
appliance.

4. While the indicator is lit, type in the subcode

(example: 1 for THOMSON).

5. Direct the remote control towards the set and try to

switch it off by pressing the key G.

6. If the set you want to control switches off, press OK

to memorise the code.

7. Should the set not switch off, press key G repeatedly,

until the set switches off. Between two key presses,
leave enough time for the key corresponding to the
selected mode enough time to light up again (about
1 second). Proceeding this way will enable you to
see whether the set responds or not.

8. Immediately upon the switching-off of the set to be

controlled, press OK to store the code.

Check of the programming:
In principle, your set is ready for receiving the remote
control commands.
Check your remote control for proper functioning by
performing the test described on page 2.

Method B – 4-digit codes

programming

Before you start programming, you must fi nd the code
of the set to be controlled.
Refer to the list provided with these instructions, page
II of the codes.
1. Switch on the set you want to control.
2. Hold down the SETUP key until the key that

corresponds to the last mode you selected blinks
and then remains lit (the indicator light remains on
for a few seconds to give you the time to proceed
with the following steps. The indicator lamp fl ashes
to signal that this time is almost up, and then goes
off).
