Testing the remote control
The remote control has been programmed to operate most Philips appliances. Because the RU520 may use different signals for each make and even for different models of the same make, it is advisable to test whether your appliance responds to the RU520. The example below (TV) instructs you how to do this. You can repeat the same steps for other appliances (VCR/DVD players/recorders) which you want to operate using the RU520. Example of TV: 1 Turn your TV on manually or use the original remote control. Tune to channel 1. 2 Use the RU520s mode selector to select TV. Press the key until the green light under TV in the selector window lights up. If no green light appears, check whether the batteries are properly inserted (see Inserting the batteries). 3 Check whether all the keys are working. For an overview of the keys and their functions see 3. Keys and functions. If the TV responds as it should to all of the key commands the RU520 is ready for use.
If the device does not respond at all or not to all of the key commands, follow the instructions under Setting the remote control.

Instructions for use Setting the remote control
This is only necessary if your appliance does not respond to the RU520. If that is the case, the RU520 does not recognize the brand and/or model of your appliance and you need to program the remote control to do so. The example below (TV) instructs you how to do this. You can repeat the same steps for other appliances (VCR/DVD players/recorders) which you want to operate using the RU520. Example of TV: 1 Turn on the TV manually or use the original remote control. Tune in to channel 1. 2 Look up the brand of your TV in the code list at the back of this manual. One or more four-figure codes are shown for each brand. Note the first code. Be careful! There are separate tables for TV, VCR and DVD. Make sure you use the codes from the correct table. 3 Select TV with the mode selector. (See Testing the remote control.)

English 6

Keep keys 1 and 3 pressed simultaneously for three seconds until the green light under TV in the selector window flashes twice and then remains lit.
Then enter the code noted in step 2 using the digital keys. The green light in the selector window will now flash twice. If the light flashes once for an extended period, the code has not been entered properly or the wrong code has been entered. Start again from step 2. Point the RU520 at the TV and check that it responds as it should. If the TV responds to all of the key commands, the RU520 is ready for use. Do not forget to note your code. If the device does not respond at all, or not to all of the key commands, start again from step 2 and try the next code from the list.

Instructions for use

If you cannot find the right code for your brand device, the remote control can automatically search for the right code. Example of TV: 1 Make sure the TV is switched on and select a channel using the original remote control or the keys on the TV (for example channel 1). The RU520 emits the switch off TV signal for all models of TV that are stored in the memory. If the device is a DVD-player or video recorder, insert a disk or tape and start playback. 2 Then keep keys 1 and 3 on the RU520 pressed simultaneously for three seconds, 3 until the green light under TV in the selector 6 window flashes twice and then remains lit.
Press the Standby key of the RU520 briefly.
The RU520 now starts emitting all known TV off signals, one by one. Each time a code is sent, the green light under TV in the selector window lights up.

VCR SAT DVD

When your TV switches off (stand-by), you press the Standby key of the RU520 twice within 1 second, to confirm. The RU520 has now found a code that works on your TV.
Check if you can operate all functions on your TV with the RU520. If this is not the case, you can redo the automatic setting. The RU520 will then search for a code that perhaps works better. After the RU520 has run through all the known codes, the search will stop automatically and the green light will stop flashing. Automatic programming of a TV takes a maximum of 5 minutes. For VCR/DVD this time is 2 minutes.

5. Troubleshooting
Problem Solution The device you want to operate does not respond and the green light does not flash when you press a key. Replace the old batteries with two new 1.5 Volt, RO3, UM4 or AAA batteries. The device you want to operate does not respond but the green light does flash when a key is pressed. Point the RU520 at the device and make sure that there are no obstructions between the RU520 and the device. The RU520 does not respond properly to commands. Maybe you are using the wrong code. Tr y programming the RU520 again using another code, which is mentioned under the brand of your device, or reset for automatic search to find the right code. If the device still does not respond, call our helpline. You cannot get the Teletext pages on your screen, while you are used to use the () button for this. Follow the instructions under Setting the remote control and at step 5 press keys 0, 0, 6 and 4. Press the OK-key to get Teletext pages on your screen. The Teletext keys do not work. Find out whether your TV is equipped with Teletext. You cannot switch off Teletext. Press the key for subtitling ( ) to switch off Teletext. You have difficulties operating all of the functions on your device. Maybe the RU520 has to be adapted to the model of the device. Call our helpline for details. Your brand of device is not in the code list. Try to set the RU520 automatically. See Automatically setting the remote control. None of the codes works during manual setting of the remote control. If that is the case, follow the instructions under Automatically setting the remote control.

Instructions for use 2. Installing the remote control Inserting the batteries 1 Press the cover inwards and slide it in the 2 3
direction of the arrow. Place two R03, UM4 or AAA type batteries into the battery compartment, as shown. Slide the cover back and click it firmly into place. English

TV VCR/ DVD

Testing the remote control
The remote control has been programmed to operate most Philips appliances. Because the RU520 may use different signals for each make and even for different models of the same make, it is advisable to test whether your appliance responds to the RU520. The example below (TV) instructs you how to do this. You can repeat the same steps for other appliances (VCR/DVD players/recorders) which you want to operate using the RU520. Example of TV: 1 Turn your TV on manually or use the original remote control. Tune to channel 1. 2 Use the RU520s mode selector to select TV. Press the key until the green light under TV in the selector window lights up. If no green light appears, check whether the batteries are properly inserted (see Inserting the batteries). 3 Check whether all the keys are working. For an overview of the keys and their functions see 3. Keys and functions. If the TV responds as it should to all of the key commands the RU520 is ready for use.
If the device does not respond at all or not to all of the key commands, follow the instructions under Setting the remote control.

Instructions for use Setting the remote control
This is only necessary if your appliance does not respond to the RU520. If that is the case, the RU520 does not recognize the brand and/or model of your appliance and you need to program the remote control to do so. The example below (TV) instructs you how to do this. You can repeat the same steps for other appliances (VCR/DVD players/recorders) which you want to operate using the RU520. Example of TV: 1 Turn on the TV manually or use the original remote control. Tune in to channel 1. 2 Look up the brand of your TV in the code list at the back of this manual. One or more four-figure codes are shown for each brand. Note the first code. Be careful! There are separate tables for TV, VCR and DVD. Make sure you use the codes from the correct table. 3 Select TV with the mode selector. (See Testing the remote control.)

English 6

Keep keys 1 and 3 pressed simultaneously for three seconds until the green light under TV in the selector window flashes twice and then remains lit.
Then enter the code noted in step 2 using the digital keys. The green light in the selector window will now flash twice. If the light flashes once for an extended period, the code has not been entered properly or the wrong code has been entered. Start again from step 2. Point the RU520 at the TV and check that it responds as it should. If the TV responds to all of the key commands, the RU520 is ready for use. Do not forget to note your code. If the device does not respond at all, or not to all of the key commands, start again from step 2 and try the next code from the list.

Instructions for use

If you cannot find the right code for your brand device, the remote control can automatically search for the right code. Example of TV: 1 Make sure the TV is switched on and select a channel using the original remote control or the keys on the TV (for example channel 1). The RU520 emits the switch off TV signal for all models of TV that are stored in the memory. If the device is a DVD-player or video recorder, insert a disk or tape and start playback. 2 Then keep keys 1 and 3 on the RU520 pressed simultaneously for three seconds, 3 until the green light under TV in the selector 6 window flashes twice and then remains lit.
Press the Standby key of the RU520 briefly.
The RU520 now starts emitting all known TV off signals, one by one. Each time a code is sent, the green light under TV in the selector window lights up.

VCR SAT DVD

When your TV switches off (stand-by), you press the Standby key of the RU520 twice within 1 second, to confirm. The RU520 has now found a code that works on your TV.
Check if you can operate all functions on your TV with the RU520. If this is not the case, you can redo the automatic setting. The RU520 will then search for a code that perhaps works better. After the RU520 has run through all the known codes, the search will stop automatically and the green light will stop flashing. Automatic programming of a TV takes a maximum of 5 minutes. For VCR/DVD this time is 2 minutes.
