Operate the TV

After you have set up your remote to control your TV, test the TV buttons to see which ones operate your TV.

1. Point the remote at the TV and press TV.

2. If TV does not turn on in step 1, press TV and then PWR.

3. Use the ÒTV Function ButtonsÓ as described on page 21.

Helpful Hint: Notice the difference between the TV and VCR on-screen displays.

This is one way to tell if the remote is set to control the VCR or the TV.
