Using the Remote Control to
Navigate On-Screen Menus
The technical term is “Navigation” – how you move through the on-screen menus. The theory is
the same for all the menu screens; press the corresponding number button on the remote
control to select the desired on-screen menu choice.
Note: Selecting a menu item can take you to another menu, activate a choice, or activate a
data entry field (such as the hour field in the Set Time menu).
Complete the QuickSet Guide
The menu system in your VCR allows you to customize your preferences as
well as use all the VCR’s features. To help you use the VCR as quickly as
possible, there is an initial QuickSet Guide that walks you through several
important setup steps at one time.
The first time you turn on the VCR, you will be able to set up available
channels, time and date information, and more. The first menu you will see
asks which language you prefer to have the on-screen menus appear in.
Note: With numbered menu choices, press the corresponding number
button on the remote control to select it. In the case of the language
menu, press 1 for English, 2 for Español (Spanish), or 3 for Français (French).
The remaining menus throughout the setup will appear in the language chosen.
Just follow the step-by-step procedures until the QuickSet Guide is complete.
Accessing Menus
The series of preferences that are set in the QuickSet Guide can also be
handled individually using the VCR’s on-screen menu system. There are other
settings not covered in the initial setup that are also handled using the on-
screen menus.
For example, if you decide to run the QuickSet Guide again, you can access the
Setup menu by pressing the remote control’s MENU button. Once the Main
Menu is displayed, press the 4 button to choose Setup. From there, you can start
the QuickSet Guide from the beginning.
All on-screen menus are accessed the same way, starting in the Main Menu
which is displayed by pressing the remote control’s MENU button.
Note: See Chapter Two, Using On-Screen Menus, for details about
changing the VCRs individual settings.
