2. Initial Use
The Huayu RM-L1278+ is a universal remote pre-programmed for the specified Toshiba TV models. In most cases, it should work immediately after battery installation without any additional programming. Point the remote towards your TV and test basic functions like Power, Volume, and Channel.
If the remote does not function immediately, ensure your TV model is listed as compatible. For advanced programming or if your TV model is not explicitly listed but is a Toshiba LED/LCD/3D TV, you may need to refer to a general universal remote programming guide for code entry methods, though this is typically not required for this specific model.
