This Universal Remote Control is compatible with most models of infrared-controlled TV sets, video recorders, LVD players, satellite and cable TV receivers.

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. But first of all, you'll have to load the supplied batteries into the remote control.

2 - Testing the not yet programmed remote control

1. Switch on the set you want to control.

2. Position the selector (26) on the type of set to be controlled:
   TV: television set
   VCR: video recorder
   SAT: satellite receiver

3. Direct the remote control towards the TV set and try to switch it off by simply pressing the key ⏻ (1). Should the set not switch off, you'll have to programme the remote control by means of one of the methods A, B, C or D described hereinafter in chapter 3.

3 - Programming the remote control

Method A - Fast programming with 1-digit subcode

Before you start programming, you must find the subcode of the set to be controlled (television set, video recorder or satellite receiver).

Refer to the list provided with these instructions, page 1 of the subcodes.

1. Switch on the set you want to control.
2. Position the selector (26) on the type of set to be controlled: TV: television set, VCR: video recorder, SAT: satellite receiver
3. Hold down the key SET UP (17) until the red indicator lamp (13) remains lit (the indicator lamp remains on for a couple of seconds, so that you have time enough to proceed with steps 4 to 6. The indicator lamp flashes to signal that this time is almost up, and then goes off).
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 ⏻ (1).
6. Immediately upon the switching-off of the set to be controlled, press OK (20) to store the subcode.
7. Should the set not switch off, press key Ⓧ (1) repeatedly, until the set switches off. Between two subsequent key depressions, give the red indicator lamp (13) enough time to extinguish and 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 (20) to store the subcode.

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 4.

SET UP

Method B - 3-digit codes programming

Before you start programming, you must find the code of the set to be controlled (television set, video recorder or satellite receiver).

Refer to the list provided with these instructions, page II of the codes.

1. Switch on the set you want to control.
2. Position the selector (26) on the type of set to be controlled: TV: television set, VCR: video recorder, SAT: satellite receiver
3. Hold down the key SET UP (17) until the red indicator lamp (13) remains lit. The indicator lamp remains on for a couple of seconds, so that you have time enough to proceed with step 4. The indicator lamp flashes to signal that this time is almost up, and then goes off.
4. While the indicator is lit, enter the first digit of the 3-digit code proposed for the set to be controlled (example: 016 for THOMSON). The red indicator then goes off or flashes, if the code is not on the list.
5. Direct the remote control towards the set and try to switch it off by pressing the key ⏻ (1).
6. Should the set not switch off, repeat step 3. Then type in the next 3-digit code. Try to switch off the set by pressing key Ⓧ (1) once. Repeat this procedure by trying out each of the 3-digit codes.
