Troubleshooting (continued)

Problem: The VCR won’t record.

•As a safety feature, you must press the RECORD key twice to begin recording.

•Make sure the tape is properly loaded in the VCR.

•Make sure the tape is not write-protected. If the safety tab is removed, the tape is write-protected and you cannot record onto that tape.

Problem: The remote will not change channels.

•You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key

(TV, VCR, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.

•Press the ENTER key after you enter a channel number.

Problem: The component’s menu doesn’t appear on the TV screen.

•The TV must be tuned to the Video Input that matches the manner in which you connected the component to the TV.

For example, if you connected your DVD player to your TV by connecting audio/video cables (usually color-coded yellow, red and white) to the TV’s Input 1 jack, you must tune the TV to its Video 1 Input channel. Remember, different manufacturers label these jacks differently. Consult the instruction manual that came with the TV for more information.

•You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding component key

(TV, VCR, DVD, DBS•SAT, CABLE, AUDIO) so the remote knows which component you want to operate.

•Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. If that’s the case, you need to use your original remote control to access menu functions for these components.
