CONTROLLING YOUR TV WITH THE VCR'S REMOTE
This Hitachi remote control can be used with your TV as well as the VCR, as long as your TV
comes with a remote control. This feature comes in handy--you won't have to juggle two
remotes.
The remote control is compatible with the fifteen makers of TVs listed below--but don't be
alarmed if yours is not on our list. You may still be able to program the remote for your TV.
Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain infrared signals. You need
to program the VCR's remote control to send signals that your TV will recognize and respond to.
Here's what to do:
Compatibility
• The remote control is designed to be operated with many televisions and cable converters, but
will not work with every one made. If your TV or cable box does not respond the way it should
when you program if as explained follows, this remote may be incapable of operating it.
• Once you have programmed the remote, you won't have to do it again until you change the
batteries.
REMOTE CONTROL OF THE TV
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL OF THE TV
1 Turn on the TV
Turn on the TV (any channel is okay).
2 Program the remote control
Aim the VCR's remote control at your TV set. Hold down
the TV button
(not the VCR/TV
button) while you press the number corresponding to your brand of television as shown in the
chart.
For example;
If you have an RCA television, press TV and 0 at the same time. If this button
combination sends a signal that matches with your TV, the channel will change on the TV, and
you'll know the remote is set to control
the television.
NOTES:
• If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list of button
combinations one by one until you find one that does change your TV channel..
• Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the number buttons. One of them may
work for you.
• If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations listed, it is
likely that you will not be able to program this remote control for your TV.
