Using The VCR's Remote Control with Your TV and Cable Box or Satellite
Receiver

In addition to controlling your VCR, the remote control can operate the
basic functions of your TV and cable box or direct-to-home satellite
receiver.

If you followed the steps listed in "Setting the On-Screen Language/
Connection Type/Remote Code/Clock" in Faxback Doc. # 50960 and the VCR
successfully tuned the channel you specified in Step 8, that means the
remote control is already programmed to control your equipment.  Skip to
the paragraph after Step 3 in this section to learn how to use the remote
control to operate your equipment.

If you followed the steps listed in "Setting the On-Screen Language/
Connection Type/Remote Code/Clock" in Faxback Doc. # 50960 and the VCR did
not tune the channel you specified in Step 8, follow these steps to
program the remote control with the correct manufacturer's code(s) for,
and to learn how to use the remote to operate, your equipment.

Note:  Some brands have more than one code listed in the charts.  If a
       code does not work with your TV, cable box, or direct-to-home
       satellite receiver, try another.  The listed codes might not work
       with all models from the listed manufacturers.

1.  Find the code for your TV and cable box or direct-to-home satellite
    receiver in the following charts.

2.  While holding down TV, enter the code number for your TV using the
    number buttons.  Or, while holding down DSS/CABLE enter the code
    number for your cable box or direct-to-home satellite receiver.

    Precede a single-digit code number with a 0 - for example, 01, 02, and
    so on.  To enter a three-digit number, press 100, then enter the
    second and third digits in the code number.

3.  Try operating your TV and cable box or direct-to-home satellite
    receiver using the VCR's remote control.  First press TV or DSS/CABLE,
    then try pressing POWER, INPUT, CH /\ or \/, and VOL +/- for TV
    operation; or POWER and CH /\ or \/ for cable box or direct-to-home
    satellite receiver operation.

    If the device does not function, repeat Step 2 and try other codes for
    the manufacturer.  If it still does not function, you must use the
    original remote control supplied with your TV and cable box or direct
    to-home satellite receiver.

    To use the remote control, press the button for the device you want to
    control-TV, DSS/CABLE, or VCR. Then press the desired function button.

Notes:  The codes you programmed might be erased if you remove the
        batteries from the remote control (to replace them, for example).
        If this happens, re-enter the codes after you replace the
        batteries.

        Some TVs, cable boxes, and direct-to-home satellite receivers
        might require that you manually turn on the power for that device.

        Your TV, cable box, or direct-to-home satellite receiver might
        have functions that the VCR's remote control will not operate.

        You can use the number buttons to select a channel number on your
        TV and cable box or direct-to-home satellite receiver.  However,
        some TVs and cable boxes or direct-to-home satellite receivers
        might require that you press DISP/ENT after entering the channel
        number.

        VOL +/- works to adjust the TV volume in any operation mode (VCR,
        TV, or CATV).

        When you press TV or DSS/CABLE then press MENU/ACTION or PROG, NOW
        TV/CABLE/DSS MODE PLEASE PUSH VCR KEY ON REMOTE appears, and TV or
        CAbL flash for about 5 seconds then disappear.  Press VCR to set
        the remote control to VCR operation mode.

RESETTING THE VCR's MEMORY

You can erase all settings (including the time, local channels, and
programmed events) at any time.  Eject any loaded tape, then hold down
PLAY and CHANNEL /\ on the VCR for about 5 seconds until it turns itself
off.  All settings are cleared.

The next time you turn on the VCR, it performs its initial setup sequence.
See "Setting the ON-Screen Language/Connection Type/Remote Code/Clock" in
Faxback Doc. # 50960.

TURNING THE ERROR BEEP ON/OFF

or incomplete information.  However you can turn the beep off or on at any
time.
