Setup

1. Battery Installation

The RCA RCR314WR remote requires two (2) AA batteries (not included).

1. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the remote control.
2. Press down on the latch and slide the battery cover off.
3. Insert two AA batteries, ensuring the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals align with the markings inside the compartment.
4. Slide the battery cover back into place until it clicks securely.

Note: Remove batteries if the remote will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.

2. Programming Your Remote

The remote can be programmed using several methods. The most common methods are Direct Code Entry and Auto Code Search.

Direct Code Entry (Recommended)

This method is recommended if you know the specific code for your device brand.

1. Turn on the device you wish to program (e.g., TV, DVD player).
2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button until the red indicator light turns on.
3. Press the device button you want to program (e.g., TV, SAT/CBL/STREAM, DVD/VCR). The red indicator light will blink once and then remain on.
4. Enter the 4-digit code for your device brand using the number buttons. Refer to the code list provided with your remote (if available) or search online for RCA RCR314WR codes.
5. After entering the code, the red indicator light will turn off if the code is valid. If the light blinks and stays on, the code is invalid; re-enter the correct code.
6. Test the remote by pressing the POWER button. If the device turns off, try other functions like volume or channel. If it works, programming is complete. If not, try the next code for your brand or use the Auto Code Search method.

Auto Code Search

This method scans through all available codes until it finds one that operates your device.

1. Turn on the device you wish to program.
2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button until the red indicator light turns on.
3. Press the device button you want to program (e.g., TV, SAT/CBL/STREAM, DVD/VCR). The red indicator light will blink once and then remain on.
4. Point the remote at the device and repeatedly press the POWER button (or PLAY for VCR/DVD) until the device turns off. Pressing the button repeatedly sends a different code each time.
5. Once the device turns off, immediately press the ENTER button (usually the OK button in the center of the navigation pad) to save the code. The red indicator light will turn off.
6. Test the remote by pressing the POWER button again and other functions. If it works, programming is complete. If not, repeat the process.
