USING THE REMOTE'S VCR BUTTONS

When using the TV remote with a VCR, first make

certain it is set to control your VCR ( by the REMOTE CODE or SEARCH method - see earlier sections).

BEGIN

1Press the VCR System button on the remote.

2Point the top of the remote toward the front of the VCR (remote sensor window) when pressing buttons.

TV-VCR (AV) Button

Press to the VCR position ("VCR" indicator on the VCR will light) to view the playback of a tape. Press again to place in the TV position ("VCR" indicator on the VCR will go OFF) to view one program while recording another program.

When used with the television the AV button works as a source button. Each press cycles the TV between the AUX(iliary) Input modes, ANT A/B inputs, and the the last view channel. It is a quick one-button way to select these channels and modes (without directly entering the TV's Menu system.)

Status/Exit Button

Press to clear the screen of menu controls or display a feature operation status screen.

Record/VCR Plus+ Button

Press the RECORD button to start a recording (with some VCR models you may also need to press the PLAY button on the remote to begin recording). Also use this button to set timer recordings with the VCR Plus+ programming system.

Clear Button

Press to erase incorrect entries or data when programming VCR functions.

Rewind Button

Press to rewind tapes. For some VCRs you may need to press STOP button first then REWIND. In playback mode, hold button down to view picture moving rapidly in reverse.
