Introduction
SBC RU885
You have made a great choice by buying this Philips universal remote control!
It replaces up to eight separate remote controls and is pre-programmed to operate with
almost any brand of TV,VCR, satellite tuner, cable decoder, CD-player, DVD-player, tuner,
amplifier and home cinema system. It can even learn the codes of other remote control
units that are not pre-programmed. Best of all, the SBC RU885 is quick to set up and
easy to use and with the back-lighting of keys and display, it can even be used in the dark!
To take full advantage off all RU885 possibilities it should be used in combination with
the (optional) RF receiver SBC LI805. Used together they allow you to operate any
IR driven equipment from anywhere in your house without actually seeing the equipment
or aiming the remote control at it.
