Setting Up the VCR
The VCR will only respond to the compatible remote’s VCR2,
VCR2•LD, or VCR2•DVD button. If the PREFERENCES setting is
changed to VCR2, the remote that came with your VCR will no
longer control it.
To change the setting back to VCR1, allowing the original remote
control which came with your VCR to control the unit, use the
compatible remote to display the PREFERENCES menu. Press 1,
and then press the VCR button on the original remote control.
Auto Play
This feature allows the VCR to automatically start playing a tape
when inserting a tape with the safety tab removed. In the
PREFERENCES menu, press 2 to switch between ON and OFF.
•
Select ON if you want a tape with its safety tab removed to
start playing automatically when inserted in the VCR.
•
Select OFF if you
do not
want a tape with its safety tab
removed to start playing automatically.
EnergySaver
By default, this VCR automatically turns off after two hours of
inactivity. To change the time delay, or to disable the feature,
Press 3 in the PREFERENCES menu to switch between ON and OFF.
•
OFF means the VCR will remain turned on until you shut it off.
•
1:00, 2:00, or 3:00 means the VCR turns off after one, two, or
three hours of inactivity respectively.
Thirty seconds before shutting off, the VCR will warn you with a
screen reading, “The VCR will turn off in 30 seconds. Press any key
to cancel.”
If you use the VCR’s tuner instead of your TV to tune channels,
you may want to turn this feature off.
