When the Remote Doesn't Work Right
Check out these possibilities:
Low Battery
If the remote is not working even at close range, try putting in two fresh AA
batteries.
When replacing the batteries, remove the old batteries and press the POWER
button on the remote and hold it for about 10 seconds, then insert two fresh
batteries.
Objects in the Way
There may be objects between the remote and the VCR - for instance, a stack of
books on the coffee table, your 2-year-old child, the dog. Hold the remote so that
it points at the VCR with nothing in the way.
If You Just Want to Watch TV
For normal TV viewing, you do not need to disconnect the VCR. When the TV
and VCR are already on, press POWER on the remote control. The VCR will
shut off, but the TV will stay on.
If you are recording on the VCR but want to watch a different channel on the TV,
press the VCRFFV button to switch back and forth between the TV channel and
the recording channel.
