Introduction
Before programming the TiVo remote control, you must first:
1. Insert batteries.
 See the remote control card for instructions.
2. Complete Guided Setup.
 See the TiVo Viewer’s Guide for instructions.
Using the Remote with a TV and A/V Stereo System
The TiVo remote will already work with your DVR. You can also set it up to control your 
TV and A/V stereo system (sometimes called an A/V receiver). For example:
• Control TV power, volume, mute, and input settings: Complete the instructions on 
pages 33–35 using the first column in each of the tables (TV power, volume, and 
mute). Then repeat the instructions using the second column (TV input).
• Control TV and A/V receiver power; A/V receiver volume and mute: Complete the 
instructions on pages 33–35 using the first column in each of the tables. Then repeat 
the instructions using the third column (A/V receiver power, volume, and mute). In 
this case, the TV POWER button turns on/off the TV and the A/V receiver at the same 
time. The VOL and MUTE buttons control only the A/V receiver.
• Control TV power and A/V receiver volume and mute: Complete the instructions on 
pages 33–35 using the first column in each of the tables. Then repeat the instructions 
using the fourth column (A/V receiver volume and mute). The VOL and MUTE 
buttons control only the A/V receiver.
Using the DVR Switch to Control Two DVRs
If you have two DVRs in the same room, setting up the DVR SWITCH will prevent the 
remote control from changing channels on both DVRs, and prevent you from accidentally 
deleting programs you want to keep. See page 36 for instructions. 
The TV INPUT button can control 
the video signal—or “input”—your 
TV displays. Changing the input will 
change the source of the video displayed 
on your TV.  TV inputs can include video 
from a VCR, DVD player, DVR, or a video 
camera.
