Once you insert batteries, it works without any programming directly from the package. It's much better than universal remotes that require complex programming. It's very simple. It's very easy. You can operate power on/off, adjust the wind speed, swing, set the timer, and use auto mode and night mode. The "AUTO" button corresponds to auto mode, and the button with the "moon" icon corresponds to night mode. Batteries are not included. (Battery type: AAA 1.5V normal battery) "TP00/TP01" 77-43
