USER MANUAL ROC6306 THOMSON

The ROC 6306 is a universal remote control (6 in 1). It can replace 6 remote controls thanks to its 6 mode keys TV, DVD, VCR,... It is compatible with the majority of television sets, video cassette recorders, DVD players, satellite and cable receivers as well as terrestrial digital television (DVBT), amplifiers and other audio equipment provided they are controlled by infra red signals. This remote control has been factory programmed to allow you to use it immediately with the majority of Thomson Group devices.We therefore advise you to try it before beginning to program it. If programming is necessary, follow one of the methods A, B, C, D or E that are given in this manual. But first, install 2 batteries (AAA) in the remote control. Keep these instructions and the separate list of codes in a safe place so that you can later reprogram your remote control.
