INTRODUCTION

You've just made a great choice by buying this Philips Universal Remote Control! The RP421 is a remote control designed to replace all Philips Television remote controls of 1980 and after. It also control basic functions of VCRs of all main European brands. Keep this manual for future reference.

INSTALLING THE BATTERIES

• Insert the batteries according to the indications in the battery compartment (rear of the remote).

These secondary functions include VCR functions and special TV functions. The RP421 is ready to work with almost all Phillips VCRs. For other brands of VCR, it needs to be set up first- see Setting up your VCR.

Important notes:

Not all TVs have all the features listed hereafter. Please check the instructions for use of your TV to determine which functions your TV has.

SETTING UP YOUR VCR

This remote is ready to work with any Philips VCR. For other brands, it needs to be set up first. That only takes a couple of seconds, thanks to Philips' Simple System Setup!

Before you start, make sure the equipment is switched on. Sit right in front of it.

If you know the brand of your VCR, look at the code list at the back of this book, and find the first 3-digit code for your equipment.

1. Press and hold 'Menu' and '7' simultaneously for at least 3 seconds.
2. Enter the 3-digit code using the keypad.
   That's it! Now, press a few keys on the remote to check that the equipment responds correctly. If it doesn't, try again using the next code in the list. In the rare instance that none of the codes work, follow the instructions below.
   Tip: Make a note of the code on the back of the remote and in the back of this booklet in case you ever need to setup again.

If you don't know the brand of your VCR or if you can not find it in the coderlist, setup still won't take long. Phillips' patented Handsfree autosearch tests all the codes one after another and finds the right one for you! Maximum search time is 3 minutes for VCRs.

Make sure the VCR is switched on, insert a tape and start playback. You will know when the correct code has been found because the VCR will stop playback.

1. Press and hold 'Menu' and '7' simultaneously for at least 3 seconds.
2. Press to start the search. Keep the remote pointed at your VCR. Every 1.5 seconds another code is sent. When the right code is found, the VCR either switches off or will stop playback).
3. Immediately press to stop the search.

If you missed the correct code because the search went too far, switch the VCR back on and start playback again, then press - P to send the previous code again. Keep pressing - P until the VCR stops playback again.
4. Once you've found the correct code, press to lock it in memory.

That's it! Now, switch the VCR manually on again, then press a few keys on the remote to check that the VCR responds correctly. In the rare instance that it doesn't, try again from step 1 to find a better code.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you're having problems with operating your equipment or if your missing certain functions on your remote, please check the points listed below:

The remote control does not function

• Check mains power on equipment.
• The batteries may be empty or not installed.
• The TV is produced before 1980 (RC-4).

To control the matchline TXT system on older sets.

• Press and hold 'Menu' and '3' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now you can control teletext.

To replace the colour keys for older TV sets.

• Press and hold 'Menu' and '1' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now the colour keys function like those on the original remote control.

To replace all menu (cursor) functions of RC 7535

• Press and hold 'Menu' and '4' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now you can control the cursor keys like you were used to.

To replace all PIP functions of RC 5992, 5390, 5391, 5392 or 5393:

• Press and hold menu and '6' simultaneously for 6 seconds.

To access directly programs 11 and 12 on some older types of TV:

• Press and hold menu and '5' simultaneously for 6 seconds.

To restore all default settings,

• Press 'Menu' and '0' simultaneously for 6 seconds.

Not all functions of my original RC are present on the RP 421.

First, try the secondary functions, see: CONTROLS. If some functions are still missing, you can program up to 4 TV functions under buttons A, B, C, D. To program the function you require, look at the code list at the back of this book, and find the 3-digit code for this specific function.

Press and hold 'Menu' and key A, B, C or D simultaneously for at least 3 seconds. Enter the 3-digit code using the keypad. Activate the programmed function by pressing A, B, C or D together with the sidekey.

Remark: Not all codes are listed on page 41-42. If you require functions that are not listed, please contact our free-phone helpline (see below). By entering code 199 the original function is restored.
