Using the Remote Control
Controlling a Cable Box or a Satellite Receiver
The CABLE button on the VCRÕs remote is preprogrammed to control a compatible RCA cable box or GE, RCA, or ProScan satellite receiver. If your cable box is another manufacturerÕs brand and has its own remote, you will probably be able to program the VCRÕs remote to control it. To program the VCRÕs remote, enter the code that corresponds to your brand.
Program the Remote for a Cable Box or Satellite Receiver
1. Turn on the cable box or satellite receiver.
2. Point the VCR remote at the cable box or satellite receiver.
3. Hold the CABLE button and press two number buttons to enter the code for your brand.
4. Release the buttons.
5.Press POWER on the remote. If the cable box or satellite receiver turns off, setup is complete.
6. Repeat steps 2 – 5 with a different code if the first one does not work.
