programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality,
test the component. Attempt to control a variety of the
component’s functions with the remote. If some of the
features of your components do not work, try programming
the remote with a different code in the list until you find
the code that allows the remote to control the majority of your
component’s functions. Different codes can provide different
levels of functionality.
Problem: The illuminated ON•OFF key does not light when
you press a key.
• You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding component key (TV, VCR•DVD, SAT•CBL)
so the remote knows which component you want to operate.
• You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode
the remote is in.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. (See
Battery Installation on page 3). Replace the batteries with two
new AAbatteries, if necessary. Reprogramming may be required.
Problem: The VCR won’t record.
• Make sure the remote is in VCR Mode.
• 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
on your component.
• You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding component key (TV, VCR•DVD, SAT•CBL)
so the remote knows which component you want to operate.
• Press the OK key after you enter a channel number.
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the component.
Make sure to aim the remote at the IR sensor on the component.
Problem: The component’s menu doesn’t appear
on the TV screen.
• Make sure you have connected your component to your
TV properly. (See your components’ Owner’s Manuals for
proper connection procedures.)
• You must put the remote in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding component key (TV, VCR•DVD, SAT•CBL)
so the remote knows which component you want to operate.
• Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. If that’s the case,
you’ll need to use your original remote control to access menu
functions for these components.
