Troubleshooting your Toshiba DVD player when the remote control doesn't work

• Check the batteries in the remote control. Weak or dead batteries won't power up the remote device. Replace the remote control batteries if they're weak or dead.
• The remote control has an effective range of about 20-feet. Make sure that you're within range of the DVD player when attempting to use the remote.
• Check for items blocking the RF sensor on the DVD player and move any items out of the way to allow the DVD player to receive remote control RF signals.
• The microprocessor inside the remote can fill up its internal memory or the microprocessor can get the memory scrambled at times. Reset the microprocessor and drain the memory in the remote by removing the remote control batteries and holding down one or more buttons on the remote device for several minutes. Reinstall the batteries and the remote may work normally again.
• You may need to replace the remote if it won't work after resetting the microprocessor and it has good batteries.

Care and handling tips for discs used in your Toshiba DVD player

• Handle DVD and CD discs by the outer edge or the center hole. Don't touch the media surface of the discs.
• Keep dirt, liquids and other foreign matter away from discs. Remove any dirt, fingerprints, smudges, liquids or other foreign material from the discs by wiping discs with a clean cotton fabric in a straight line from the center of the disc to the outer disc edge. Use DVD/CD cleaning detergent, isopropyl alcohol or methanol to clean stubborn dirt or deposits from discs.
• Store DVD and CD discs upright. Don't bend discs. Don't expose discs to extreme heat or high humidity.
• Don't use adhesive labels to mark DVD or CD discs. Use a non-solvent-based felt-tip marker to label the top side of the disc.
