1. Introduction
The RM-014S+ is a universal remote control designed to operate a wide range of LCD and LED televisions. It features a strong infrared signal, clear button labeling, and a comfortable design for ease of use. This manual provides essential information for setting up, operating, and maintaining your remote control.
2. Setup and Programming
The RM-014S+ remote control requires initial setup to function with your television. This typically involves programming the remote to recognize your TV's specific infrared codes.
2.1 Battery Installation
- Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote control.
- Insert two appropriate batteries (e.g., AAA, not included) according to the polarity markings (+ and -) inside the compartment.
- Close the battery compartment cover securely.
2.2 Programming the Remote Control
The RM-014S+ is a universal remote that needs to be set according to the manual. While specific programming codes are not provided here, a common method for universal remote programming is auto-search:
- Ensure your TV is turned on.
- Point the remote control at your TV.
- Press and hold the 'SET' button (or a similar 'Code Search' button if present) on the remote until the indicator light (usually red) turns on.
- While holding the 'SET' button, press the 'Power' button once. The indicator light should blink.
- Release the 'SET' button. The indicator light should remain on.
- Repeatedly press the 'Power' button (or 'CH+' button) on the remote, pausing briefly between presses, until your TV turns off (or changes channel). This indicates the remote has found a compatible code.
- Once your TV responds, immediately press the 'SET' button again to save the code. The indicator light should turn off.
- Test all functions (Power, Volume, Channel) to ensure proper operation. If some functions do not work, repeat the auto-search process to find a more compatible code.
Refer to the packaging or any included supplementary instructions for specific programming codes or alternative setup methods if the auto-search does not yield full functionality.
