Instructions for use

You just made a great choice by buying this Philips universal remote control! It takes the place of as many as six separate remote controls and can operate the most-used functions of almost any brand of TV, VCR, satellite tuner/cable decoder and AUDIO equipment.
SHIFT: to get access to additional functions (press together with other function keys). Depending on the age of your equipment, the result is for example: SHIFT + PROG+: increases brightness or menu up function SHIFT + PROG-: decreases brightness or menu down function SHIFT + VOL+: increases colour or menu right function SHIFT + VOL-: decreases colour or menu left function Try other shift/key combinations on your equipment to discover which functions are available. Remember that you cant get access to additional functions if these functions were not available on the original remote control of your equipment!

Installing the batteries

Your SBC RU 660 needs two 1.5V batteries, type R03, UM4 or AAA. Put them in like this:

LR03 / AAA

To operate menu control. To confirm your selection. SLEEP: to activate and vary the sleep timer (if available on your equipment). To switch on teletext. To stop changing teletext pages. To enlarge the teletext display on screen. To put subtitling on your screen (if available on your equipment), or to switch teletext off. If you use the memory out key () to access the next teletext page on your Philips TV, you can use the subtitle key to access. For more details see Memory Out section under Troubleshooting. Fasttext Red VCR Rewind Record Green Stop Play Blue Forward Pause
Remember to replace the batteries at least once a year. Dont leave the batteries out for longer than one hour, otherwise you will need to set-up the SBC RU660 again. While the remote control is actively being moved about, the back-lighting stays on. This consumes more power than normal and may require you to change your batteries more frequently. You can easily turn the back-lighting function off to conserve power. To do this please follow the instructions in the backlighting section.

Changing the device keys

With the mode selector it is possible to select 6 categories of devices you want to operate. Each category (TV, VCR, SAT, CD, AUDIO1, AUDIO2) is meant to operate a specific group of equipment:

2 Press and hold keys 1 and 6 simultaneously -for about 3
seconds - until the green LED lights up.
3 On the keypad, press keys 9, 9, and 3. 4 Press the mode selector key to select SAT (second TV). 5 Press the power key.
Thats it! The LED flashes twice to indicate successful set up. The Volume up/down keys now control the volume of your second (SAT) TV when youre in VCR mode.
Once you have programmed the functions of a device in one of the categories, it is not possible to program another device in the same category. There is, however, a solution in case you want to program two devices in the same category (2 TVs, VCRs, etc.). The following example explains how. EXAMPLE: The SAT mode on this remote control is factory preset to control many Philips satellite receivers. You can change the SAT mode (or any mode) to operate another type of device. The following example shows you how to use the SAT mode to operate a second TV: 1 Press the mode selector key to select SAT and make sure the second TV is switched on.

Functional back-lighting

When you pick up the SBC RU660 and tilt it over about 60 degrees, the main keys for the device you want to operate are automatically back-lit. In VCR mode for example, only the main keys that are needed to operate the VCR are back-lit. You can choose to have all of the keys back-lit, or you can switch off the functional back-lighting feature completely.
