Tip

To turn off all the RCA, GE, and Proscan components that are connected to the TV, press ON•OFF twice within two seconds.

This feature only works with most RCA, GE, and Proscan products.

Note:

The DVD and AUX•HD buttons also turn on most RCA, GE, and Proscan products.

MENU In TV mode, makes the TV Main menu appear and disappear. In DVD mode, makes the reduced TV menu appear and disappear.

MUTE Reduces the TV’s volume to its minimum level. Press again to restore the volume.

OK / FREEZE When in the menu system, selects highlighted items. When watching TV without the PIP window or menu system in use, the OK/FREEZE button freezes the picture until you press any button on the remote to resume normal TV viewing. The FREEZE feature automatically times out after a short time. Please note that when you "unfreeze" you go back to live programming (skipping any programming that occurred during the freeze).

Note: The FREEZE feature does not work on signals from the DVI-HDTV, CMP1 input in progressive scan (480p) or HDTV (1080i) modes.

Do not use the Freeze feature for an extended period of time. This can cause the image to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube. Such damage is not covered by your warranty. Press any button to unfreeze the picture at any time.

PIP CH – / DVD ZOOM When the remote is in TV mode, this button changes the channel in the PIP window. When the remote is in DVD mode, use this button to change the Zoom mode for discs with video in the 4:3 aspect ratio.

Use the left and right arrow buttons to change to a different Picture or Sound preset. In DVD mode while a disc is playing, brings up the current disc's menu (if available).

RECORD When the remote is in AUX•HD mode and programmed to control a recording device (such as a VCR), this button tells the device to start recording. The recording device must be connected to the component you’re watching in order for that device to record the program you’re watching.

REVERSE, PLAY, FORWARD, STOP, PAUSE In DVD mode, these buttons provide reverse, play, fast forward, stop and pause the disc. If programmed, they also provide transport control for some remote-controllable VCRs, DVD players, tape decks, and CD players.
