Using the Remote Control

Controlling a TV

The VCRÔs remote is preprogrammed to control the basic functions of a compatible RCA, ProScan, or GE TV. The remote can also be set up to control other manufacturerÔs brands. To program the remote, use the remote buttons that correspond to your brand.

Program the remote for a TV

1. Turn on the TV.

2. Point the VCR remote at the TV.

3. Hold the TV button and press two number buttons for your brand. If the TV changes channels when the CHAN up or down button is pressed, set up is complete.

4. Release the buttons.

5. Repeat steps 2 – 4 with two other buttons if the first ones do not work.

Helpful Hint: Notice the difference between the TV and VCR on-screen displays. This is one way to tell if the remote is set to control the VCR or the TV.
