Control display (see page 30).
The Manufacturer pop-up appears.

Highlight and select the manufacturer of your VCR.
The manufacturer’s pop-up appears.

Select a VCR manufacturer code from the list.
The Test pop-up appears.
Some manufacturers have more than one code to choose from.
If the VCR manufacturer code you select does not work in step 4
below you can select another code for that manufacturer.

Select “Yes” to perform a VCR test.
If you select “Yes”, a pop-up appears giving you instructions on
