NOTES:

●The Controller may not work with all types of cable box.

●If your cable box does not respond to any code between 1 and 25, you cannot use the Controller to change cable box channels. In this case, make sure to leave the cable box turned on and tuned to the proper channel before the scheduled start time of timer recording.

Contact your cable company about the possibility of exchanging your current cable box with the one compatible with your VCR.

●The VCR can only change the cable box channel through the Controller during timer recording.

●If your cable box cannot be operated with a remote control (because it has no remote sensor), you cannot use the Controller to change its channels. Make sure to leave the cable box turned on and tuned to the proper channel before the scheduled start time of timer recording.

●If the VCR’s memory backup expires because of a power failure, set the cable box output channel and brand again.

●For customers in U.S.A.: If you are unable to set the Controller, contact JVC toll free at 1-800-537-5722.
