QUICK START
MiniMote was designed specically for children ages three
or older, with safety and simplicity in mind. MiniMote offers
a simple means of control over what content your children
are exposed to when they watch television.
Basic setup is very simple, so you can give the remote to
the children in your household to begin using in just a few
minutes.
Step 1: Installing Batteries
Using a screwdriver, remove the battery cover from the
back side of the remote control. Insert 2 AAA batteries
as shown below. Do not replace cover on battery
compartment until programming is complete.
Step 2: Set Remote to Programming Mode
Set the switch located in the battery compartment to the
middle position P to enter programming mode as shown

Control process until the TV responds to
MUTE.
