Direct Replacement Remote
This universal remote is a direct replacement for the original DENON 4990122007, DCD1630, DCD1420, and RC-217 models. It replicates every button and function of the supplied handset so operation remains identical. The unit arrives pre-programmed and only requires AAA batteries before use.
Home Audio Owners
It suits owners of the listed Denon CD players who have lost or damaged the factory remote and want an immediate, ready-to-use substitute. Buyers needing control over multiple brands or devices should look at a multi-device universal remote instead. This unit supports only one device at a time.
Single-Device Infrared Control
The specification that decides fit is the single-device infrared design matched to DENON 4990122007, DCD1630, DCD1420, and RC-217 codes. It controls exactly one component using line-of-sight infrared signals and cannot operate additional equipment. Confirm your model number matches the list before ordering.

Questions about this item
Does the RC-217 remote need a clear line of sight to the Denon player?

What is the first step after opening the box to make the RC-217 work?
Insert the two AAA batteries, observing the polarity marks inside the compartment, then point it at the player.
When will the RC-217 need new batteries?
