RCA VR270 VCR User Manual


 
Before you use the remote control unit supplied with
sour ViSR, install the batteries (instructions below).
Several of the remote's buttons do the same things as
buttons with the same names on the top of your VCR,
and you can use whichever one is more convenient at the
moment.
The remote control has additional buttons for
controlling some of the VCR's special features, and it is
also used for setting the clock and programming the
timer.
Since the remote control operates the VCR by infrared
light, it is immune to electrical and sound interference.
However, you must aim the remote control directly at
the VCR. There cannot be any obstructions between
them.
