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.
