Important Battery Information
• If you’re not going to use the remote for a month or more, be sure to remove the batteries because
they can leak and cause damage.
• Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal, state, and local regulations.
• Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all
batteries are not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge
a battery not intended to be recharged.
• Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or other personal injury.
Point the Remote in the Right Direction and Put it in DVD or VCR Mode
When you want the remote to operate the DVD/VCR player, point the remote at the DVD/VCR, not the
TV. The remote has to be pointed in the correct direction and toward the correct component in order
for the remote control’s signal to communicate with the sensor on the component. Make sure there is a
clear path between the remote control and the component you want to operate, so the signal isn’t
blocked.
Turn on the TV and DVD/VCR
1. Turn on your TV and tune it to the correct Video Input Channel.
• If you used a coaxial cable to connect your DVD/VCR to your TV, tune the TV to channel 3. Your
TV must be set to channel 3 the first time you set up the DVD/VCR. See page 37 for instructions
on how to change the ouput channel once you have started setup.
• If you used audio/video cables to connect your DVD/VCR, tune the the TV to its Video Input
Channel (see page 62 for help).
2. Press the DVD or VCR button to turn on the DVD/VCR.
• For DVD functions, press the DVD button.
• For VCR functions, press the VCR button.
3. The first time you turn on your DVD/VCR, the Languages
menu appears.
If you want the DVD/VCR menus to appear in English, press
the OK button on the remote control. If you prefer another
language, press the arrow down button until that language
is highlighted. Press OK to select the language.
