Tips

TIPS

•If you do not do anything in a menu for several minutes, the menu automatically

closes. This will discard any changes you made, and display the program you were

watching.

•Keep from accidentally changing the channel or input on your TV by programming the

remote in Limited Mode (see page50).

QUESTIONS

Why doesn’t my remote control work?

•Make sure the remote control is in the right mode (see pages 8 and 50).

•Make sure the batteries are good (see page 8).

•Make sure you are pointing the remote directly at the receiver (TV, VCR, DVD player,

etc.) (page 8).
