Using the System
Control a VCR (or a Second VCR or a DVD Player)
Only the buttons described here control a VCR or DVD player. Some of the buttons described here may not control your VCR or DVD player. See the user’s manual that came with your VCR or DVD player for information about the features.
VCR Mode Button
You must first set up the remote to control the VCR or DVD player. See Set Up the Remote to Control Devices, beginning on page 72. Then, you must press the VCR mode button to set the remote to VCR mode. The VCR mode button lights for two seconds to show you’ve set the remote to VCR mode. Make sure you keep the remote in VCR mode to use the buttons described here.
Note: You can set up the remote to control a second VCR or DVD player in AUX mode, the same way it controls the first VCR or DVD player in VCR mode. See Set Up the Remote to Control Devices beginning on page 72.
Note: You must set the remote to VCR mode to set it up to control a DVD player.

Use the TV/VIDEO button to switch the VCR between its TV mode and its
VCR mode (see your VCR user’s manual for information).
Power Button
Press the blank POWER button to turn the VCR on or off.
Page Up and Down Arrow Buttons
