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 ofVCRs and/or converters, you first have to program
your remote control. (See "Programming the remote control for use
with a non-Toshiba VCR or a cable TV converter" on page 15.)
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.

Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the
lock snaps.
