Using the Remote Control

Controlling a TV

The VCRÔs remote is preprogrammed to control the basic functions of a compatible GE, RCA, or ProScan TV. The remote can also be set up to control other manufacturerÔs brands. To program the remote, enter remote code numbers 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 to enter the code for your brand. If the TV changes channels when you press CHAN up or down, setup is complete.

4. Release the buttons.

5. Repeat steps 2 – 4 with a different code if the first one does 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.
