NOTES:
• The Controller may not work with all types of cable box.
• If your cable box does not respond to any code, you cannot
use the Controller to change cable box channels. In this case,
make sure to leave the cable box turned on and tuned to the
proper channel before the scheduled start time of timer
recording.
Contact your cable company about the possibility of
exchanging your current cable box with the one compatible
with your VCR.
• The VCR can only change the cable box channel through the
Controller during timer recording.
• If your cable box cannot be operated with a Remote (because
it has no remote sensor), you cannot use the Controller to
change its channels. Make sure to leave the cable box turned
on and tuned to the proper channel before the scheduled start
time of timer recording.
• If the VCR’s memory backup expires because of a power
failure, set the cable box input channel and brand again.
• For customers in U.S.A.: If you are unable to set the
Controller, contact JVC toll free at 1-800-252-5722.
