TROUBLESHOOTING
If you're having problems with operating your equipment or if your missing certain functions
on your remote, please check the points listed below:
The remote control does not function
– Check mains power on equipment.
– The batteries may be empty or not installed.
– The TV is produced before 1980 (RC-4).
To control the matchline TXT system on older sets.
– Press and hold 'Menu' and '3' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now you can control
teletext.
To replace the colour keys for older TV sets.
– Press and hold 'Menu' and '1' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now the colour keys
function like those on the original remote control.
To replace all menu (cursor) functions of RC 7535
– Press and hold 'Menu' and '4' simultaneously for 6 seconds. Now you can control the
cursor keys like you were used to.
To replace all PIP functions of RC 5992, 5390, 5391, 5392 or 5393:
– Press and hold menu and '6' simultaneously for 6 seconds.
To access directly programs 11 and 12 on some older types of TV:
– Press and hold menu and '5' simultaneously for 6 seconds.
To restore all default settings,

Not all functions of my original RC are present on the RP 421.
First, try the secondary functions, see: CONTROLS. If some functions are still missing, you
can program up to 4 TV functions under buttons A, B, C, D. To program the function you
require, look at the code list at the back of this book, and find the 3-digit code for this spe-
cific function.
Press and hold 'Menu' and key A, B, C or D simultaneously for at least 3 seconds. Enter the
3-digit code using the keypad. Activate the programmed function by pressing A, B, C or D
together with the sidekey.
Remark: Not all codes are listed on page 41-42. If you require functions that are not listed,
please contact our free-phone helpline (see below). By entering code 199 the ori-
ginal function is restored.
