Tips

You need to assign a function to the VIDEO 3 button before you can use the button to control your audio/ video equipment. For details, refer “Changing the factory setting of an input button” on page 46.

To activate the buttons with orange printing, press TV and the button you want simultaneously.

Before you use the V/v/B/b button for receiver operation, press MAIN MENU. To operate other components, press TOP MENU/GUIDE or AV MENU after pressing the input button.

Notes

When you press the input buttons (VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3, DVD), the input mode of the TV might not switch to the corresponding input mode that you want. In this case, press the TV/VIDEO button to switch the input mode of the TV.

Some functions explained in this section may not work depending on the model.

The above explanation is intended to serve as an example only. Therefore, depending on the component the above operation may not be possible or may operate differently than described.

Changing the factory setting of an input button

If the factory settings of the input buttons do not match your system components, you can change them. For example, if you have a tape deck and you do not have an MD deck, you can assign the MD/TAPE button to your tape deck.

1 Hold down the input button whose input you want to change (for example, MD/TAPE).

2 Press the corresponding button of the component you want to assign to the input button (for example, 7 – Tape deck).

The following buttons are assigned to select the input:
